Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples are increasingly being used for genomic profiling of brain tumors, offering a less invasive alternative to tissue biopsies. CSF samples provide a higher signal-to-noise ratio for detecting tumor-derived cell-free DNA (cfDNA) compared to plasma samples, making them particularly useful for …
