IHC - Lambda - (Outlab)
What does IHC - Lambda - (Outlab) measure?
Lambda immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a tissue-based test that detects lambda light-chain protein expression in cells. It may be used alongside kappa light-chain staining and other pathology tests to assess whether plasma cells or certain lymphoid cells show a restricted light-chain pattern. This information can help healthcare professionals evaluate plasma cell and lymphoid disorders and interpret biopsy findings in the context of clinical history and other laboratory results.
