Genomic alternations, including dosage and allelic imbalance, constitute a major basis of neoplastic and other genetic disorders. Using oligonucleotide genotyping microarrays, here we report the development and usage of an algorithm, called genome imbalance map (GIM) algorithm, for allelic as well as total gene dosage analysis. Using the GIM algorithm, global genome imbalance status at over 100,000 loci was simultaneously analyzed with unprecedented accuracy and allelic discrimination.
