LSUHSC Renal Pathology Consultative Services

A renal biopsy is a precious specimen. Its miniscule size is deceptive because of the large quantity of information it harbors, information vital to understanding the etiology, treatment, and prognosis of your patient. It is imperative, therefore, that this tissue be handled not only in an expeditious fashion, and but also properly interpreted. The LSUHSC renal biopsy service is designed with that end in mind.

Service Excellence

The emphasis of our renal biopsy service is service, with:

  • Rapid turn-around-time: light microscopy with special stains and immunofluorescence stains out the day the biopsy arrives

  • Direct communication with the referring nephrologist the day a biopsy arrives.

No case is signed out without direct contact with the clinician to ensure that the diagnosis is not only correct, but is also properly focused to the critical questions raised.

We are ready to assist in your diagnosis and treatment.  Please call or email to learn more about how we could fill your renal pathology requirements.
