Does COLOR use BART testing?

I recently looked into a Color BRCA test to see if I had any genetic mutations that increased my breast cancer risk. I have a maternal grandmother who was diagnosed with breast cancer at forty five and I had a benign breast biopsy at thirty. I'm not smart enough to decipher the scientific jargon on their website so I was wondering if anyone could tell me if they use the same method (BART testing) as Myriad? I don't want to waste money on a test that I will just have to repeat because it's not comprehensive enough. Thank you in advance.

    Hi abibliophile, and welcome!

    According to this page on the main Breastcancer.org site, Color is one of the companies that does offer testing of BRCA genetic mutations.

    We hope this helps answer your question!
