Motivation: The "Manchester Scoring System" can be used to assist clinicians and genetic counselors in the clinical management of families suspected of having hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and to decide whether genetic testing should be performed.

Description: The "Manchester Scoring System" is an empirical mutation risk prediction model. In its current form, a risk score for the identification of a pathogenic BRCA1/2 mutation is being calculated based on the number of breast and ovarian ...

The GC-HBOC BC Risk Explorer (GC-HBOC BC-RE) predicts the breast cancer risk for BRCA1/2 carriers and high-risk non-carriers at risk for first breast cancer (cohort 1), and BRCA1/2 carriers and high-risk non-carriers who were previously diagnosed with unilateral breast cancer, and are at risk for contralateral breast cancer (cohort 2). GC-HBOC BC-RE is based on data from female BRCA1/2 carriers and non-carriers with a family history of breast and ovarian cancer, who participated in the intensified ...

Motivation: The eClaus model can be used to calculate mutation risks for BRCA1/2 as well as life-time risks for breast cancer in women from families with multiple and/or early onset cases of breast and ovarian cancer. The model can be used to assist genetic counselors in clinical decision making regarding genetic testing, intensified surveillance, and prophylatic surgery.

Description: The Claus model is a genetic breast cancer risk calculation model assuming a single rare, highly penetrant gene. ...

The PREMM5 has been developed as a pretest to decide whether patients suspected of having Lynch syndrome should be tested for germline mismatch repair gene mutations. In contrast to "PREMM1,2,6" it can be used to predict mutation probabilities in unaffected index patients. "PREMM5" is a logistic regression model. It calculates the risk of having a mutation in the mismatch repair genes MLH1, MSH2/EPCAM, MSH6 and PMS2 (for single genes and overall) based on the personal and familial cancer history ...

The main goal is to provide a principled analysis workflow addressing specific issues of mass-spectrometry metabolite measurements in the context of testing in multiple studies with a high number of hypotheses

Shiny-Application of an analysis pipeline for preprocessing, association and covariate selection of metabolite data with clinical and lifestyle factors in one or more seperate studies. Preprocessing steps include transformation, outlier filtering and batch-adjustment. Analyses include uni- ...

Motivation: The "GC-HBOC Mutation Frequency Explorer" can be used to assist clinicians and genetic counselors in the clinical management of families suspected of having hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and to decide whether genetic testing should be performed.

Description: The "GC-HBOC Mutation Frequency Explorer" is a tool to determine the observed frequencies of pathogenic BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations based on familial cancer history data collected since 1996 by the German Consortium for ...

This is a set of MATLAB procedures for automated segmentation and counting of macrophages in multiple IHC stained tissue samples. Execution assumes that three aligned single-channel greyscale images of a given tissue area are available, representing IHC stainings with CD14 and CD163 antibodies (targeting macrophages) as well as DAPI staining (targeting cell cores). After detection of evaluation subregion (based on DAPI channel information), IHC stained macrophages will be masked and counted (based ...
