Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

 

The conventional diagnoses are often supplemented by specific immunohistochemical and molecular biological methods. In many cases, only the combination of these methods enables the pathologist to define disease entities and to correlate them with functional properties. This applies, in particular, to oncology with regards to histogenesis, prognosis, and drug resistance, and also to pathology of infectious diseases with queries about pathogen detection/classification, e.g. tuberculosis, viruses, fungi etc. For these tasks, specially trained staff is available.

 

Particularly trained staff of Virchow Labs is doing a great number of immunohistochemical analysis using the tissue specimens of the patient's. For the staining procedures specialized instruments of Roche/Ventana and Leica are used routinely. This insures constant staining results and contributes to the high quality of the immunohistochemically based diagnosis. The list of antibodies available in daily diagnosis are shown in the attached catalog.
