“…However, regional copy number Editorial heterogeneity can be due to either clonal evolution or the existence of two separate clones in the sample (Figure 2b), and neither FISH nor array-based karyotyping can distinguish between the two possibilities. Regional copy number heterogeneity has been reported by others 5,13 and it can be either terminal, as in this example, or interstitial. The ability to detect the genetic heterogeneity illuminated by array-based karyotyping is exciting, but the clinical relevance of this heterogeneityFin genomic length, UPD or regional copy numberFhas yet to be vetted.…”
