Her2 Serum Test

A friend of mine was just recently diagnosed with mets to several different places in her bones. Her original bc diagnosis was Her2-. When she went in front of the tumor board, they discussed the possibility of the bone mets being Her2+. They don't think a biopsy is a good idea becase she is in a weakened state and could get an infection, so they are treating her like she is Her2-. I was wondering if they could do the Her2 Serum test on her and find out that way if she is Her2+.

I don't know that much about the test, but maybe some of you know if this idea would work.

Thank you.

Karen
