Ian:
Although trichrome stains can be used as an aid in the for 
diagnosis/evaluation of prostate tumors, the most commonly accepted methods in use today involve 
immunohistochemical (IHC) stains for such 'markers' as p63, high molecular 
weight cytokeratin (and other CK's), and AMACR/racemeace/P504S.  I have 
extensive experience performing IHC procedures for these antigens, and if can offer 
you any assistance, please let me know...
Best Wishes,

Dear Histology Community.
I am currently working on a project dealing with Prostate cancer. If anyone
has experience working on prostate cancer, please let me know, I have a lot
of questions. Anything you all could offer would be much appreciated.
Basically I am looking into the Masson Trichrome as a possible technique for
diagnosis. Specifics would be preferable, but again, any bit of information
would be great.

Thank you!
