Prevalence of exon 11 internal tandem duplications in the C ‐KIT proto‐oncogene in Australian canine mast cell tumours

ConclusionThe prevalence of C‐KIT exon 11 ITDs in Australian canine MCTs is similar to the prevalence in overseas canine populations (overall prevalence in Australia approximately 18%). ITDs were more frequently identified in higher grade MCTs.
