how to determine the status of MSI, as snapshot method using tumor/normal samples #1

Hi,

I am very interesting in your VisualMSI tool, since it is quite simple to use and very fast to find the microsatellites.

However, I am confusing how to determine the MSI status, etc. MSS, MSI-L, MSI-H, since the results for five loci did not directly infer the status, or do you have any thresholds to determine?

Thanks

I will give the details in my preparing paper.

Hi Chen,

Any update on the preparing paper?

I still want to know the criterion to determine the status of the MSI site, especially for tumor only data.

It will be glad you can provide.

Thanks
