Summary

This study looks at whether a blood test can accurately diagnose systemic mastocytosis, a rare disease where too many mast cells build up in the body. Currently, diagnosis requires a painful bone marrow biopsy. Researchers will test blood samples from 50 adults using a highly sensitive method to detect a key genetic mutation (KIT-D816V). If successful, this could offer a simpler, less invasive way to diagnose and monitor the disease.
