Make treatment decisions
Differentiate between smooth muscle and collagen fibers in tissue sections

This method is used to differentiate between smooth muscle and collagen fibers in tissue sections

Collagen fibers are stained blue, nuclei stained black and cytoplasm, muscle, erythrocytes are stained red.

The Trichrome Stain can assess the degree of fibrosis in the liver, which gives important information about stage and progression of a disease. Liver diseases such as hepatitis B and C viral infections, fatty liver disease, alcoholic liver disease and chronic biliary diseases show the formation of fibrous tissue including bridging fibrous septa leading to the end-stage process called cirrhosis. The stain is used to make treatment decisions; utilized to assess the effect of therapy, medications in clinical trials and needed for all liver biopsy specimen and tissues such as skin and heart.
