Additional file 1:

This file includes the aberrations calculated by CGH-segmentation for the SKBR3 CGH profiles hybridized by Pollack et al., Shadeo and Lam, Jong et al., manually, automatically, and hybridized FFPE SKBR3. Calling copy number changes by setting thresholds allowed comparison of different hybridization platforms and methods.
