Routine Histology
Three Rivers Pathology
runs H and E testing on all specimens that are submitted to the histology
department. When further testing is needed or requested we then run Special
Stain and/or Immunohistochemistry testing. The standard turn around time
for all of our Histology testing is forty eight hours with twenty four
hour turn around time available by request.
Our senior
technologist has 24 years of experience and a special certification
in Immunohistochemistry.
