True
Orderable Test Description
Bi-directional sequencing of KIT exons 8, 9, 11, 13 and 17 for detection of activating mutations including the common mutation D816V. For solid tumors, tumor enrichment is performed before extraction. In hematological disease, testing may be performed on plasma to increase sensitivity. Testing is approved for specimens from the state of New York.
