    摘要: Technology provided herein relates in part to methods, processes, machines and apparatuses for non-invasive assessment of genomic nucleic acid instability and genomic nucleic acid stability. The method comprises providing a set of genomic portions each coupled to a copy number alteration quantification for a test sample, wherein the genomic portions comprises portions of a reference genome to which sequence reads obtained for nucleic acid from a test sample obtained from the subject have been mapped, and the copy number alteration quantification coupled to each genomic portion has been determined from a quantification of sequence reads mapped to the genomic portion; and determining, by a computing device, presence or absence of genomic instability for the subject according to the copy number alteration quantifications coupled to the genomic portions.
