bio-tumor-fraction-estimation

Estimates circulating tumor DNA fraction from shallow whole-genome sequencing using ichorCNA. Detects copy number alterations via HMM segmentation and calculates ctDNA percentage. Requires 0.1-1x sWGS coverage. Use when quantifying tumor burden from liquid biopsy or monitoring treatment response.
