About this test
The IHC Markers (CD10, ER, PR) test is a specialized immunohistochemistry (IHC) diagnostic panel used to detect the expression of CD10, Estrogen Receptor (ER), and Progesterone Receptor (PR) in tissue samples. This panel is widely used in pathology for tumor classification, hormone receptor evaluation, and differentiation of specific benign and malignant tissue lesions.
Each marker in this panel provides important diagnostic information:
- CD10: A cell surface enzyme marker commonly used to identify stromal cells, certain hematologic malignancies, and specific epithelial tumors.
- ER (Estrogen Receptor): Detects estrogen receptor expression, especially important in breast and gynecologic cancers.
- PR (Progesterone Receptor): Detects progesterone receptor expression and helps evaluate hormone sensitivity of tumors.
Together, these markers provide a comprehensive assessment of tissue characteristics and are especially useful in diagnosing breast tumors, gynecologic lesions, endometrial stromal tumors, and hormone-sensitive cancers.
Benefits of the Test
The IHC CD10, ER, PR panel offers several important clinical benefits:
- Detects hormone receptor status accurately
- Helps classify hormone-sensitive tumors
- Assists in diagnosing breast and gynecologic cancers
- Differentiates benign and malignant tissue lesions
- Supports prognosis assessment
- Guides hormone therapy decisions
This test is critical for personalized oncology care.
Why Doctors Recommend This Test
