IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test for the evaluation of breast cancer. This diagnostic tool is an immunohistochemistry (IHC) panel that consists of specific antibodies targeting different proteins expressed in breast cancer cells.
Test Components
- ER (Estrogen Receptor)
- PR (Progesterone Receptor)
- HER-2 (Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2)
- Photomicrograph
- Includes Pathologist review for presence of malignant cells
Test Cost
The cost of the IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test is AED 1000.0.
Symptoms and Diagnosis
If you are experiencing symptoms of breast cancer or have received a positive diagnosis, the IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test can provide valuable information for your treatment plan.
Sample Condition
To ensure accurate results, please submit tumour tissue in 10% Formal-saline or Formalin fixed paraffin embedded block. The sample should be shipped at room temperature. Additionally, provide a copy of the Histopathology report, indicate the site of biopsy, and provide clinical history.
Report Delivery
Sample Daily by 6 pm
- Report – Block: 5 days
- Tissue Biopsy: 5 days
- Tissue Large Complex: 7 days
Method
The IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test is performed using immunohistochemistry, a technique that involves staining breast tissue samples with specific antibodies. The stained samples are then examined under a microscope to determine the presence and intensity of ER, PR, and HER2 expression in the tumor cells.
Test Type
The IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test is classified as a cancer test.
Doctor
This test is typically ordered by an oncologist.
Test Department
The IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test is conducted in the Histology department at DNA Labs UAE.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, please provide a copy of the Histopathology report, indicate the site of biopsy, and provide clinical history.
Test Details
The IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test is a valuable tool in the evaluation of breast cancer. It helps determine the subtype of breast cancer and guides treatment decisions. The panel includes antibodies against estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). These markers are crucial in determining the appropriate use of hormonal therapy and targeted therapies, as well as prognosis and overall patient management.
The ER and PR markers indicate whether the cancer cells are responsive to hormonal therapies such as tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitors. The HER2 marker is overexpressed in some breast cancers and helps determine eligibility for targeted therapies like trastuzumab.
The IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test involves staining breast tissue samples with specific antibodies and examining them under a microscope. The results provide information about the presence and intensity of ER, PR, and HER2 expression in the tumor cells.

Test Details | The IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test is a diagnostic tool used in the evaluation of breast cancer. It is an immunohistochemistry (IHC) panel that consists of specific antibodies targeting different proteins expressed in breast cancer cells. The panel includes antibodies against estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). These markers are important in determining the subtype of breast cancer and guiding treatment decisions. The ER and PR markers are hormone receptors that indicate whether the cancer cells are responsive to hormonal therapies such as tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitors. HER2 is a growth factor receptor that is overexpressed in some breast cancers, and its status helps determine eligibility for targeted therapies like trastuzumab. The IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY DIGITAL BREAST CANCER PANEL 3 test involves staining breast tissue samples with these antibodies and then examining them under a microscope. The results of the test provide information about the presence and intensity of ER, PR, and HER2 expression in the tumor cells. This panel is commonly used in the clinical management of breast cancer patients to guide treatment decisions. It helps determine the appropriate use of hormonal therapy and targeted therapies, as well as prognosis and overall patient management. |
