[Histonet] HPV

[Richard Cartun]

You need to use in situ hybridization for HPV detection.  IHC is not sensitive or specific for routine use.

The pathologist here would like to get HPV up and running in house.  I'm just asking for some feed back from everyone that is running HPV (manufacture; clone; protocol).  We currently run the Ventana Benchmark XT/Ultra platform.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
