What is Immunohistochemistry -CD30?
This test employs immunohistochemistry to detect the CD30 protein in a tissue sample. CD30 is a cell surface receptor typically expressed on activated T and B cells, and notably on the abnormal cells found in certain lymphomas. It helps identify specific types of lymphoid malignancies.
Why is this test important?
The CD30 test is crucial for diagnosing Hodgkin lymphoma (especially classical Hodgkin lymphoma) and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). Its presence is a key diagnostic marker and can also indicate suitability for certain targeted therapies.
