What are the proper specimen handling instructions for immunohistochemistry?
For Immunohistochemistry, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded blocks should be submitted with appropriate clinical history and a copy of any previous Histopathology report if available. Alternatively, specimens can be collected as per routine histopathology; detailed clinical history must accompany the specimen along with contact number of the referring doctor (Page 17).
