Additionally,
copy number aberrations inferred from the Ion Torrent sequencing were compared to single nucleotide polymorphism arrays and found to be 59 % concordant on average.
As with most cancers, triple - negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells have abnormal amounts of chromosomes or DNA
copy number aberrations (CNAs) in their genomes.

Recently geneticists have taken a closer look at a genetic
aberration previously considered rare:
copy number variation (CNV).
As an example, skeletal malformations and dysplasias, often detected through routine prenatal ultrasound examination, constitute a phenotypic finding in more than 300 syndromic and non-syndromic disorders and their genetic etiology may be due to a wide variety of genetic
aberrations, ranging from
copy number variations to single gene mutations.
From cytogenetic research to genome - wide
copy number association from micro-arrays, SVS delivers a powerful toolset for correlating common and rare chromosomal
aberrations with disease.
