Predictive testing is a crucial part of the complete diagnostic process of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and a necessary requirement in order to determine proper course of treatment. However, the possibilities of testing and the spectrum of examined markers are quickly evolving as a result of the progress in diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities, and as such it is necessary to regularly update the current guidelines to achieve proper standards of care in routine practice.
