RE: Collagen Stains??

From:"Dr. James Britt"


The H & E is a very powerful stain.  If you can get sections of the area,
can your pathologist not tell the two areas apart?  I don't look at this
area routinely, so I'm not sure if it would be obvious or not, but I would
try an HE and maybe a PAS. Perhaps the staining differences may decline with
ageing too.
