Positive staining for the ER and PR is defined as nuclear immunostaining in 1 to 10% (+), 10 to 50% (++), or >50% (+++) of the tumor cells, whereas a minus (−) indicates negative staining. Positive staining for HER2 is defined as membranous immunostaining of the tumor cells at levels + (faint positivity), ++ (moderate positivity), or +++ (strong, circumferential positivity), whereas HER2− indicates a completely negative staining.
