Biomarker testing
Biomarker testing involves taking a small
amount of tumour and analysing the
biology of it. It can help make sure you
get an accurate diagnosis and that your
treatment plan is tailored to your particular
tumour type.
We believe that this type of testing should
be available to everyone – so make sure
that you ask if it hasn’t been offered. There
may be good reason why it isn’t appropriate
for you, but your doctor will be able
to explain this.
