Test Details
Biopsy skin with immunofluorescence (IF) is a procedure used to diagnose and study various skin conditions, such as autoimmune disorders. It involves taking a small sample of skin tissue, usually through a punch biopsy, and examining it under a microscope using specific antibodies labeled with fluorescent dyes. These antibodies bind to specific proteins or cells of interest in the skin tissue, allowing for visualization and identification of different components, such as immune cells, antibodies, or markers of inflammation. This technique helps in understanding the underlying mechanisms and identifying specific patterns or abnormalities associated with the skin condition being investigated.
