Bioinformatics and DNA-extraction strategies to reliably detect genetic variants from FFPE breast tissue samples

Abstract Background Archived formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples are valuable clinical resources to examine clinically relevant morphology features and also to study genetic changes. However, DNA quality and quantity of FFPE samples are often sub-optimal, and resulting NGS-based genetics...
