Targeted controls in clinical immunohistochemistry: a useful approach to quality assurance.
Few would argue with the premise that the tasks faced by laboratory physicians in the year 2001 are significantly different than they were even 10 years ago. Through the 1980s, for example, the expected role of the surgical pathologist was to establish a timely and accurate tissue diagnosis for any specimen sent to him or her, and providing answers to clinical questions on patient management ge...
متن کاملControls for Immunohistochemistry
Immunohistochemistry is no different from any other technique: An experimental approach for which the quality of the results relies entirely on the analyte, reagents, precise experimental technique, correct application of controls and, ultimately, an accurate interpretation of the data based on all of the aforementioned factors. In this article, the essential nature of appropriate controls in i...
متن کاملQuantitative immunohistochemistry in lung cancer: clinical perspective.
Quantitative immunohistochemistry remains an important tool in translational lung cancer research with hopes to improve patient outcomes and avoid unnecessary therapies. Present review is aimed to summarize the use of immunohistochemical markers for improved prognostic information and prediction of treatment benefit. Several of these markers are currently explored in phase II-III clinical studi...
متن کاملGetting controls under control: the time is now for immunohistochemistry
For several decades, immunohistochemistry (IHC), more specifically diagnostic IHC (dIHC), has been considered an art rather than a laboratory test. There was no clarity about what test performance characteristics are relevant to dIHC, test performance characteristics were not fully defined for dIHC and partly as a consequence of that, there were no standardised controls or reference standards. ...
متن کاملRadiation-induced Non-targeted Effect and Carcinogenesis; Implications in Clinical Radiotherapy
Bystander or non-targeted effect is known to be an interesting phenomenon in radiobiology. The genetic consequences of bystander effect on non-irradiated cells have shown that this phenomenon can be considered as one of the most important factors involved in secondary cancer after exposure to ionizing radiation. Every year, millions of people around the world undergo radiotherapy in order to cu...
