Test Overview & Methodology
The Immunohistochemistry CD15 test identifies the CD15 antigen on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections, serving as a pivotal marker in the diagnosis and subclassification of Hodgkin lymphoma and certain acute myeloid leukemias. This automated IHC assay, performed in our ISO 9001:2015 accredited facility, delivers reliable immunostaining results within 5โ7 days.

| Sample Collection | Secure medical courier retrieval of archival blocks/slides | In-clinic only, or unmonitored courier |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
โThe immunohistochemical detection of CD15 must be interpreted alongside histomorphology and the full clinical picture. While strong membranous and Golgi staining of Reed-Sternberg cells strongly supports a diagnosis of classical Hodgkin lymphoma, false-positive cross-reactivity can occur; thus, correlation with other markers such as CD30 is essential. I urge all patients to continue any prescribed medications and to discuss test findings with their managing oncologist.โ

Medication Advisory
โ ๏ธ Do not discontinue any prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. This test does not replace clinical evaluation.
Exclusion Criteria & Safety Red Flags
- Insufficient or necrotic biopsy specimen; re-biopsy may be required.
- Inadequate clinical history or missing prior histopathology report; sample may be rejected.
- ER Red Flags: If you experience rapidly enlarging lymph nodes, unexplained fever, drenching night sweats, or significant weight loss, seek immediate medical care.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding patients must inform the phlebotomist and discuss any concerns with their physician.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the CD15 test used for in cancer diagnosis?
Snippet: The CD15 test identifies the CD15 protein in tissue to diagnose Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloid malignancies. This immunohistochemical assay highlights ReedโSternberg cells and granulocytic precursors, aiding pathologists in distinguishing classical Hodgkin lymphoma from other lymphoproliferative disorders. It is often combined with CD30 and PAX5 for a definitive diagnosis.
2. How should I prepare for the CD15 test sample collection?
Snippet: No fasting or medication changes are needed. Provide the FFPE block or slides along with the original pathology report. The sample will be retrieved via secure medical courier from your healthcare provider or the hospital where the biopsy was performed. Ensure you have supplied all relevant clinical history. Inform the coordinator of any implanted medical devices or bleeding disorders.
3. How long does it take to receive CD15 test results, and who interprets them?
Snippet: Results are typically ready in 5โ7 business days. A board-certified surgical pathologist interprets the staining pattern and integrates findings with your clinical picture. You will receive a comprehensive report including photomicrographs and diagnostic comments. Telephonic post-test guidance is available to explain the results and their implications for your treatment plan.
