Find Clarity in Your Cancer Diagnosis Journey
When you’re facing the uncertainty of a suspicious growth or tumor diagnosis, the MOC31 Immunohistochemistry test provides the precise answers you need for peace of mind. This advanced diagnostic tool helps distinguish between different cancer types, ensuring you receive the most accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.
Understanding the MOC31 Immunohistochemistry Test
The MOC31 test uses sophisticated antibody technology to identify specific protein markers on cancer cells. Think of it as a highly precise molecular detective that helps pathologists differentiate between mesothelioma and other types of cancer. This distinction is crucial because different cancers require completely different treatment approaches.
Using your tissue sample, our expert pathologists apply special antibodies that bind only to specific cancer cell proteins. The results provide clear visual evidence that helps your medical team make confident treatment decisions.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you:
- Have been diagnosed with a suspicious lung or chest mass
- Need to distinguish between mesothelioma and lung adenocarcinoma
- Have unclear biopsy results requiring more precise identification
- Are experiencing symptoms like persistent cough, chest pain, or shortness of breath
- Have a history of asbestos exposure
- Need confirmation of cancer type before starting treatment
Early and accurate diagnosis can significantly impact your treatment success and quality of life.
