About the Authors
  • This book will enable practitioners to understand the many complex intricacies of immunohistochemistry (IHC) and make best use of this powerful analytical tool. Providing a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of immunohistochemistry, the book includes several chapters on robotics and automation technology, giving key information on the design of machines and tips to maximise workflow efficiencies. The relationship between IHC and molecular pathology is explained clearly, demonstrating the increasing impact on personalized medicine and targeted therapies for cancer patients. The staining protocol is deconstructed, allowing the reader to adapt it for a variety of diagnostic and research applications. Written by experts at the forefront of hospital immunohistochemistry, there is a strong emphasis on practical guidance on a range of techniques as well as troubleshooting of common problems driven by the authors' experiences. Extensively illustrated with high-quality colour images, this is an invaluable resource to all pathology practitioners utilising the technique.

    • Authored by practicing medical scientists at the forefront of hospital immunohistochemistry departments, lending their expertise and experience in the field to the book. Having encountered many of the common problems associated with IHC, the advice given is practical and relevant to the techniques readers will be using
    • Over 200 high-quality colour images illustrate the techniques explained in the book and engage readers in the subject matter, ensuring they can easily grasp complex immunochemistry and molecular topics
    • Approaches molecular technology and its applications for personalized medicine in clear and straightforward terms, making IHC techniques accessible for readers who do not have a background in molecular biology
