Histology tests

Histology is the study of tissues under the microscope to detect structural changes, disease progression, and abnormalities. Histology tests are essential for diagnosing cancers, inflammatory conditions, and other tissue-related diseases. Samples are usually collected from biopsies, surgical specimens, or organs.

• Biopsy Analysis: Examines tissue samples to detect cancer or abnormal growth.

• H&E Staining (Hematoxylin & Eosin): Basic staining technique to view tissue structure.

• Special Stains (PAS, Masson’s Trichrome, etc.): Highlight specific tissue components or microorganisms.

• Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Uses antibodies to detect specific proteins or markers in tissues.
