Stochastic epigenetic outliers can define field defects in cancer

BACKGROUND: There is growing evidence that DNA methylation alterations may contribute to carcinogenesis. Recent data also suggest that DNA methylation field defects in normal pre-neoplastic tissue represent infrequent stochastic “outlier” events. This presents a statistical challenge for standard fe...
