Understanding Your Breast Cancer: The First Step to Effective Treatment
When you’re facing a breast cancer diagnosis, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. You deserve answers that go beyond a simple diagnosis – you need to understand exactly what type of cancer you’re dealing with and how it will respond to treatment. Our Immunohistochemistry Digital Breast Cancer Panel 1 provides those crucial answers, giving you and your healthcare team the precise information needed to create the most effective treatment strategy.
What This Test Reveals About Your Breast Cancer
This advanced digital panel examines specific protein markers in your cancer cells that determine how your treatment will work. Think of it as getting to know your cancer on a molecular level – understanding its unique characteristics so your medical team can choose therapies that are most likely to succeed.
The test specifically analyses:
- Estrogen Receptors (ER): Determines if your cancer responds to hormone therapy
- Progesterone Receptors (PR): Provides additional information about hormone sensitivity
- Malignant Cell Confirmation: Expert pathologist review ensures accurate analysis
- Digital Photomicrograph: High-quality imaging for precise evaluation
