C-Kit (CD117) by IHC near me in Chennai

The C-Kit (CD117) by IHC test  test is used to detect the CD117 protein on the surface of certain cells using the immunohistochemistry (IHC) method. C-Kit is a type of receptor found on some normal and cancerous cells. It is commonly expressed in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and a few other cancers like melanoma and some leukemias. Identifying CD117 positivity helps doctors confirm the diagnosis and determine if targeted treatments, such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors, may be suitable. This test plays an important role in diagnosis and treatment planning for cancers where C-Kit expression is relevant.

Note: One representative block of the tumor is required. However, 1-4 representative blocks of tumors are acceptable.
