Clonal Hematopoiesis: A new layer in the liquid biopsy story in lung cancer

Cell free DNA (cfDNA) is a unique biospecimen that contains multiple sources of DNA including tumor, germline, fetal, and others. Clonal hematopoiesis, a process that leads to expansion of mutations in peripheral blood cells, is an additional source of DNA that adds a layer of complexity when interp...

Clonal hematopoiesis, a process that leads to expansion of mutations in peripheral blood cells, is an additional source of DNA that adds a layer of complexity when interpreting results.
