IHC stands for immunohistochemistry, a laboratory method used to study proteins in tissue. It helps pathologists identify what type of cells are present and what markers they express. IHC is commonly used on biopsy or surgery specimens when cancer is suspected or confirmed. The results can support diagnosis and help guide treatment planning.
