Description

A pathologist will use a procedure to obtain tissue from the pleura, peritoneum or pericardium.  Once that tissue is obtained, a doctor will perform various tests on the tissue to determine if the tumor is a mesothelioma.  These tests are what is referred to as Immunochemistry.  Immunochemistry is important in differentiating between different types of cancer.
