[Histonet] Colloidal Iron

[lena spencer]

Hi All:
One of my Pathologist's has requested a Hale's Colloidal Iron for renal cell
carcinoma chromophobes.  I am familiar with colloidal iron for
mucosubstances, but he feel's that this is not the same stain.   The article
stated that the diagnosis is made from the colloidal iron stain  or from
electron microscopy .  This Pathologist is requesting that I post on the
histonet for additional information or for someone out in histoland who is
performing this procedure.
Your is insight would be greatly appreciated.
