Clinical cancer genomic profiling by three-platform sequencing of whole genome, whole exome and transcriptome

Clinical oncology is rapidly adopting next-generation sequencing technology for nucleotide variant and indel detection. Here the authors present a three-platform approach (whole-genome, whole-exome, and whole-transcriptome) in pediatric patients for the detection of diverse types of germline and som...

Description
Summary:Clinical oncology is rapidly adopting next-generation sequencing technology for nucleotide variant and indel detection. Here the authors present a three-platform approach (whole-genome, whole-exome, and whole-transcriptome) in pediatric patients for the detection of diverse types of germline and somatic variants.
