Data‐Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry in Tumor Classification and Cancer Biomarker Research
Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.Abstract Cancer treatment is far from optimal also because current classification systems do not reflect the complex molecular status of the tumor and its phenotype in sufficient detail. To construct molecular tumor classifiers, omics tools provide complex molecular data reflecting many aspects from genotype to phenotype.
