immunohistochemistry listen (IH-myoo-noh-HIS-toh-KEH-mih-stree) A lab test that uses antibodies to test for certain antigens (markers) in a sample of tissue. The antibodies are usually linked to an enzyme or a fluorescent dye. When the antibodies bind to the antigen in the tissue sample, the enzyme or dye is activated, and the antigen can then be seen under a microscope. Immunohistochemistry is used to help diagnose diseases, such as cancer. It may also be used to help tell the difference between different types of cancer. National Cancer Institute

This includes cells grown within a culture, deposited from suspension, or taken from a smear.
