Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of rapid ultrasonic tissue processing on breast biopsy tissue.Methods Totally 100 breast puncture samples from the Department of Pathology at Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University in 2023 were randomly selected and dehydrated using rapid ultrasound tissue processing technology(the rapid group).Paired surgical samples(0.3 cm×0.3 cm×0.3 cm)that did not undergo neoadjuvant therapy before surgery were collected and subjected to routine pathological tissue treat-ment(the conventional group).The two groups of samples were subjected to routine sectioning after dehydration.The dehydration time,hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining effect,and fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH)results of the two groups were compared.Next,the estrogen receptor(ER),progesterone receptor(PR),and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)immunohistochemical(IHC)detection results of the two groups were compared using the kappa test with paired counting data.Results Dehydration time in the rapid group(46.70±1.42 min)was significantly shorter than that in the conventional group(659.25±6.03 min,t=987.44,P<0.001).No significant differences were observed between the HE staining scores of the rapid group(10.13±1.12)and that of the conventional group(10.15±0.97).The consistency rate of ER expression between the two groups was 92.5%(Kappa=0.794,P<0.05),that of PR expres-sion between the two groups was 76.25%(Kappa=0.639,P<0.05),and that of HER2 expression between the two groups was 72.5%(Kappa=0.610,P<0.05).The FISH results were consistent between the two groups.Conclusion Rapid ultrasonic tissue treatment has the advantages of a short procedure time,less pollution,and simple operation.The present study showed no statistically significant differences between the effect of rapid tissue treatment on tissue sections and that of routine dehydration.Therefore,this method can be widely used in pathology for the analysis of small samples.
