    Abstract: Methods for determining the fraction of lymphocytes in a mixed sample comprising genomic material from multiple cell types are described. The methods comprise obtaining a read depth profile for the sample along a predetermined genomic region of interest including at least a portion of a genomic locus that undergoes VDJ recombination; obtaining a plurality of read depth ratios (ri) by normalising the read depths by reference to a baseline read depth derived from a subset of the region of interest; obtaining a summarised read depth ratio value (rVDJ) for a subset of the region of interest that is likely to be deleted through VDJ recombination; and determining the fraction of lymphocytes (f) in the sample as a function of the summarised read depth ratio value (rVDJ). Methods of providing a diagnosis or prognosis based on the lymphocyte fraction are also described, as well as related systems and products.

    Abstract: The position of an interventional device, such as a catheter, introduced into a human body is determined by producing an image of a region of the body into which the device is to be introduced, using 3-dimensional imaging apparatus; displaying the 3-dimensional image on a two-dimensional display screen; detecting the device in the body using a single-plane detecting apparatus, thereby to determine the position of the device substantially in two dimensions; superimposing the image of the region of the body onto an image of the detected device on the display screen in registration therewith; detecting the movement of the device in response to internal movement of the body, thereby to determine the position of the device in said two dimensions; and displaying the position of the device on the image on the display screen.
