What is Immunohistochemistry -Tdt?
This immunohistochemistry test examines tissue samples to detect the presence of Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) enzyme. By using special antibodies, it helps identify specific proteins within cells, providing crucial information about tissue characteristics.
Why is this test important?
Detecting TdT is crucial for diagnosing acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and lymphoblastic lymphoma. It helps differentiate these conditions from other types of leukemia and lymphoma, which is vital for initiating appropriate and timely treatment.
