From routine H and E
sections, surgical pathology has progressed to special stains, enzyme
histochemistry, tissue culture, electron microscopy, immunohistochemistry
and molecular biology. As with all new developments in medicine, these
methodologies have gone through a life cycle of unrestrained enthusiasm,
disappointment followed by a more sober and realistic approach. The most
profound impact on the way we practice histopathology today has been of Immunohistochemistry
(IHC) - a powerful and cost effective tool applicable in light
microscopy. It is ‘an aesthetic component to practice histology’,
which validates the morphologic judgment pathologists make.
