Abstract
The present invention includes compositions and methods useful for the detection of a mutational change, SNP, translocation, inversion, deletion, change in copy number, or other genetic variation within a sample of cellular genomic DNA or cell-free DNA (cfDNA). In some embodiments, the compositions and methods of the present invention provide an extremely high level of resolution that is particularly useful in detecting copy number variations in a small fraction of the total cfDNA from a biological sample (e.g., blood).
