4.3.2 Visualization of the regions

Once the search is completed, the minimal amplified regions are displayed as vertical blue lines (minimal amplified regions are located on chromosomes 6, 8 and 11). In order to see the accurate location of the regions with respect to the cytogenetic bandings do as follows (see Figure 4.6):

1. in the bottom left corner click on Minimap to display the chromosome image with cytogenetic bandings
2. in the main panel mouse over the sample profiles for chromosome 6, 8 and 11 and you will see that the minimal amplified regions are highlighted in blue in the minimap panel
