What is the maximum days the report can be obtained for the test

The maximum days for obtaining a report for the Ki-67 (Proliferating Cells) Test Immunohistochemistry is typically around 7-10 days. However, this may vary depending on the specific laboratory and testing facility.

What does this test Ki-67??(Proliferating Cells) Test Immunohistochemistry identify?

Ki-67 immunohistochemistry test identifies proliferating cells in a tissue sample. The Ki-67 protein is present in cells during active phases of the cell cycle (G1, S, G2, and mitosis) but not in resting cells (G0). By staining tissue samples with antibodies against Ki-67, the test can identify and quantify the percentage of cells that are actively proliferating.

Why is this test Ki-67??(Proliferating Cells) Test Immunohistochemistry taken?

Why is the Ki-67 (Proliferating Cells) Test Immunohistochemistry taken?

The Ki-67 test is an immunohistochemistry test that is used to measure the level of Ki-67 protein in cells. Ki-67 is a protein that is present in cells only during active phases of the cell cycle, particularly in the S and M phases where cells are actively dividing. Therefore, the Ki-67 test is used to determine the rate of cell proliferation in a tissue sample.

This test is commonly used in cancer diagnostics to assess the growth rate of tumors. High levels of Ki-67 protein in tumor cells indicate rapid cell proliferation, which may suggest a more aggressive tumor that requires more aggressive treatment. Conversely, low levels of Ki-67 may indicate slower growth and a potentially less aggressive tumor.

The Ki-67 test can also be used in other clinical contexts to assess cell proliferation rates in non-cancerous tissues, such as in research studies or for monitoring treatment response in certain diseases.
