Next generation sequencing utilizes high-throughput methods to simultaneously determine the oligonucleotide sequence of hundreds or thousands of DNA fragments generated following restriction digestion of tumor DNA or reverse transcription of tumor RNA. Newer methods are also able to sequence RNA directly. Each commercial platform utilizes a different specific technology (black box) to determine the nucleotide sequence.
