Re: HER2 Serum Test
Sorry-dumb question-there's a Her-2 serum test????
Is it used to monitor for recurrence or only for more advanced cases? Sorry to ask this question here- I am having trouble with this site since its format changed and am unable to get the search feature to work. Could someone direct me to more info on this test?
