Test Overview
The Immunohistochemistry p16 test measures p16 protein expression in tumor tissue to identify high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV)-related cancers and guide treatment decisions. Often used for cervical, oropharyngeal, and other squamous cell carcinomas, this test provides critical prognostic information when combined with a full histopathology review.
Our Test vs. Closest Alternative

| Turnaround Time | 5–7 days (block 5 days; large complex 7 days) | 3–5 days |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“Dear patient, your biopsy will be handled with the utmost clinical care. Please remember that p16 results must be correlated with your full histopathology report and clinical history; a positive result does not automatically mean cancer. Do not discontinue any prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. Your well‑being is our priority, and early, accurate diagnosis saves lives.”

Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the p16 immunohistochemistry test and why do I need it?
Snippet: The p16 immunohistochemistry detects p16 protein overexpression in tumor tissue to guide cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment risk assessment.
This specialized marker helps distinguish high-risk HPV-driven cancers from other lesions, aiding oncologists in planning targeted therapy and follow-up.

2. How should I prepare and what sample is required?
Snippet: Submit tumor tissue in 10% formalin-saline or a formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded block along with the histopathology report and biopsy site details.
No special patient preparation is needed; the sample is collected by your physician during biopsy. Ensure all clinical history accompanies the specimen for accurate interpretation.

3. How long until I get results and what do they mean?
Snippet: FFPE block results are reported within 5 days, while large complex tissues require 7 days; your doctor will interpret p16 status alongside other findings.
Diffuse strong p16 positivity often indicates high-risk HPV involvement and may require aggressive management; however, only a DHA-licensed oncologist can provide a final diagnosis.
