title: Application of immunoperoxidase staining to the cell blocks from sputa and bronchial washings.
abstract: Keratin and carcinoembryonic antigen immunoperoxidase staining were applied to lung cancer cells in paraffin sections of cell blocks from sputa and bronchial washings. The results correlate well with cytologic diagnosis. The large cell carcinomas are nonreactive with both antibodies.
