Superliver (Liver Biopsy with Liver Staining Panel)
- Test Code
- FBXLSP
- Results:
- 3-5 business days
- Container
- To prevent severe biopsy damage when temperatures are below freezing, we recommend adding 1:10 ratio of isopropyl alcohol (70% or greater) to 10% neutral buffered formalin.
- Specimen
- Submit liver tissue in 10% neutral buffered formalin, in a biopsy container available through ANTECHâ„¢ or other plastic, leak-proof, wide mouth 1 L or smaller container labelled with patients name, tissue source, and date.
Tissue specimens larger than 20 cm are most easily handled by sending them fresh: NO formalin, only enough saline to keep the sample moist, triple bagged to prevent leakage (leaks delay shipping), and refrigerated until pickup. - Test Description
- A board-certified anatomic pathology team sub-specializing in liver pathology of dogs and cats will provide expert analysis on standard H&E plus four additional stains for fibrosis, copper, iron and reticulin.
Reports include: microscopic description, microscopic findings, and pathologist’s comments, staging of fibrosis, evaluation of the degree of parenchymal collapse, and a qualitative copper grade. If applicable, reports include margin evaluation, and tumor grading. As always, a consultation with a board-certified internal medicine consultant special interest in hepatic disease is available.
IMPORTANT: Include a TRF with history including relevant lab work and imaging results. Specimen packaging MUST comply with US DOT transport of biohazardous material regulations for pickup and transport. Order DOT compliant packaging through healthtracks.com.
