As a consequence of decades of basic and translational studies revealing the genetic basis of lung cancer, a paradigm shift has occurred toward a personalized approach to medicine whereby mutational analysis confers an opportunity for safer, and expedient treatment options. In this context, next-generation sequencing (NGS) has emerged as a vital technological advance, and has become increasingly established as a core method for rapidly and effectively identifying actionable mutations in lung cancer.
