Tumor analysis

I would tend to agree with you.

In the U.S. those who are treated at major cancer centers also seem to have more thorough analysis than those who are treated elsewhere.

And although I was treated at a major cancer center in 2002, as recently as that my path report has very little analysis because many of the tests now done were not commonly done anywhere back then.

A number of people in her2support have had a portion of the tumor block independently further analyzed for various testing. I don't know how difficult it would be for you to have that happen in the UK.
