IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY HMB-45 Test Cost, Symptoms & Diagnosis
IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY HMB-45 Test is used to detect the presence of melanoma. Melanoma is a type of skin cancer that develops from the pigment-producing cells, known as melanocytes. It is one of the most dangerous forms of skin cancer and can spread rapidly to other parts of the body if not detected and treated early.
The cost of IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY HMB-45 Test at DNA Labs India is INR 3000. This test is performed on a tissue sample collected from the suspected area of melanoma. It helps in identifying the presence of a protein called HMB-45, which is found in melanocytes. The presence of HMB-45 indicates the presence of melanoma.
Symptoms of Melanoma
The following are the common symptoms of melanoma:
- A change in the size, shape, or color of a mole or a new mole that appears on the skin
- An irregular border or uneven color on a mole
- A mole that bleeds or itches
- A lesion that does not heal
- A dark streak under a nail
If you notice any of these symptoms, it is important to consult a dermatologist immediately.
Diagnosis of Melanoma
Diagnosis of melanoma involves a thorough physical examination of the skin and a biopsy of the suspected area. Once the tissue sample is collected, it is sent to a pathology lab for analysis. IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY HMB-45 Test is one of the tests performed on the tissue sample to confirm the presence of melanoma.
Early detection of melanoma is crucial for successful treatment. If you suspect that you may have melanoma or notice any of the symptoms mentioned above, do not hesitate to get in touch with DNA Labs India for fast and affordable testing.
