MORPHOMETRIC GENOTYPING OF CELLS USING OPTICAL TOMOGRAPHY FOR DETECTING TUMOR MUTATIONAL BURDEN

摘要

A method to develop one or more morphometric classifiers to identify a tumor mutation burden (TMB). The method provides a non-invasive method of characterizing TMB that is responsive to a tumor in its early stages of development and irrespective of the tumor size. The method allows targeting cancer therapy to the specific characteristics of the cancer that the patient may have, allowing more efficient cancer management with far fewer side effects.
