Figure 1.
Detection capacity of genomic aberrations with different technologies.1Includes various technologies that may interrogate single nucleotide changes through to the sequence of the entire gene (AS-PCR, fragment analysis, Sanger sequencing, and others). 2Includes gene expression arrays, NanoString, and RT-MLPA assays. 3Most technologies, except FISH, cannot detect subclonal CNAs (<20%) with high confidence. 4Including gene fusions. Ticks indicate good capacity to determine a certain aberration/feature, whereas an inverted red triangle indicates a limited/insufficient detection capacity. AS-PCR, allele-specific oligonucleotide polymerase chain reaction; CNA, copy number aberration; IG, immunoglobulin; indel, insertion-deletion; RT-MLPA, reverse transcriptase multiplex ligation–dependent probe amplification; TR, T-cell receptor locus.
