Although the conventional hematoxylin and eosin (H and E) staining is vital for the histological diagnosis of lesions, the role of immunohistochemistry (IHC) is undeniable in surgical pathology. Morphology, which looks more or less similar on H and E staining, can be further differentiated by merely doing IHC. This, in turn, not only helps in rendering a definitive diagnosis but also helps in the selection of appropriate therapy for the individual patient. Thus, IHC has become an integral part of the armamentarium of neuropathology.
尽管传统的苏木精和伊红(H&E)染色对于病变的组织学诊断至关重要,但免疫组织化学(IHC)在外科病理学中的作用不可否认。在H&E染色上看起来或多或少相似的形态,仅通过进行免疫组织化学就能进一步区分。这反过来不仅有助于做出明确的诊断,还有助于为个体患者选择合适的治疗方法。因此,免疫组织化学已成为神经病理学工具的一个组成部分。
