What does IHC - Androgen Receptor - (Outlab) measure?
This immunohistochemistry (IHC) test evaluates androgen receptor protein expression in tissue cells. Androgen receptors are proteins that can influence how certain cells respond to male sex hormones. The test may be used in the assessment of some cancers, including prostate and breast cancers, and may help healthcare professionals understand tumour characteristics and support treatment planning. Results are interpreted along with tissue findings, medical history, and other laboratory tests.
