ichorCNA

ichorCNA

ichorCNA is an R tool for estimation of tumor fractions in ultra-low pass whole genome sequencing (WGS) and prediction of large-scale copy number variation (CNV). The ichorCNA algorithm uses a hidden Markov model (HMM) for the probabilistic modeling and works in sequencing coverages down to 0.1X.
