The ALK1 Test Immunohistochemistry identifies the presence of the ALK protein in tissue samples. This test is commonly used in the diagnosis and management of certain types of cancer, particularly in cases of anaplastic large cell lymphoma and non-small cell lung cancer. The ALK protein is a receptor tyrosine kinase that plays a role in cell growth and proliferation. Detection of the ALK protein through immunohistochemistry can help guide treatment decisions, as certain targeted therapies are available for tumors that overexpress this protein.
