IHC Additional (Bill Only)
Use
This test is intended for billing purposes only, and is not orderable by itself. It is used to bill for immunohistochemistry (IHC) procedures performed as part of a larger testing process that requires additional IHC staining. IHC is a widely used technique in diagnostic pathology, which helps in the visualization of the presence and location of proteins in tissue sections.

Limitations
As this test is only for billing purposes and not a standalone diagnostic test, it does not provide any direct analytical or diagnostic value by itself. The limitations are therefore inherent in the immunohistochemistry procedure related to the primary test it supports, such as variability in staining quality and interpretation based on tissue type and condition.
