Specialized Tests

In addition to standard diagnostic procedures, RDL offers a range of specialized tests designed to further classify and evaluate skin diseases. These advanced tests are especially useful for diagnosing complex conditions like skin cancer, autoimmune diseases, and genetic disorders. Physicians and patients across the United States trust us for these critical services.

Our specialized testing services include:

• Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Testing: A method used to detect specific proteins in tissue samples, providing crucial information about the type and behavior of a disease.

• Special Staining: These stains enhance the visibility of tissue structures, helping dermatopathologists distinguish between different disease types.

• Direct Immunofluorescence (DIF) Testing: A technique used to detect autoimmune diseases affecting the skin by identifying antibodies that target your skin cells.

RDL’s access to a network of diagnostic partners allows us to provide even the most advanced molecular and genetic tests. These tests help predict disease progression and response to treatment, offering invaluable insights that guide your physician’s approach to your care.
