前面我们简单的介绍了一下肿瘤的TNM分期系统。今天我们来用R获取感兴 趣的癌症的临床信息，其中就可以找到我们上次讲到的TNM分期信息。
代码语言：javascript复制#加载TCGAbiolinks包
library(TCGAbiolinks)
#下载TCGA-CHOL这个项目相关的临床信息，这个项目是胆管癌
clinical <- GDCquery_clinic(project = "TCGA-CHOL", type = "clinical")
#将下载到的临床信息写入到clinical.csv文件中
write.csv(file="clinical.csv",clinical)> dim(clinical)
[1] 51 158一共得到51个样本的临床信息，一共有158条临床信息，他们分别是
