Find Clarity in Your Cancer Diagnosis Journey
When you’re facing the possibility of bladder or prostate cancer, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. We understand the anxiety that comes with not knowing exactly what you’re dealing with – that’s why our specialised Immunohistochemistry Panel exists. This advanced test provides the definitive answers you need to move forward with confidence in your treatment plan.
Understanding Your Test: Precision in Cancer Diagnosis
This isn’t just another lab test – it’s a sophisticated diagnostic tool that uses immunohistochemistry to distinguish between bladder and prostate cancers with remarkable accuracy. By analysing specific protein markers in your tissue sample, our expert pathologists can determine exactly which type of cancer is present, ensuring you receive the most appropriate treatment from day one.
The test examines cellular patterns and molecular signatures that are unique to each cancer type, providing your healthcare team with critical information that guides everything from surgery decisions to medication choices.

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms or situations, this test could provide the clarity you need:

Many South African patients find themselves in diagnostic limbo – this test helps break through that uncertainty with scientific certainty.
