Accurate detection of chromothripsis event is important to study the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon. CTLPScanner ( http://cgma.scu.edu.cn/CTLPScanner/ ) is a web-based tool for identification and annotation of chromothripsis-like pattern (CTLP) in genomic array data. In this chapter, we illustrate the utility of CTLPScanner for screening chromosome pulverization regions and give interpretation of the results. The web interface offers a set of parameters and thresholds for customized screening. We also provide practical recommendations for effective chromothripsis detection. In addition to the user data processing module, CTLPScanner contains more than 50,000 preprocessed oncogenomic arrays, which allow users to explore the presence of chromothripsis signatures from public data resources.
