Pathology
Pathology is the branch of science that deals with scientific study of structure and function of the body in disease through laboratory examinations of samples of blood ,body fluids, tissues (biopsy samples), surgically removed organs, and in some cases the whole body (autopsy), for diagnostic or forensic purposes.
Pathologists are often called 'Doctor's Doctor'. Medical practitioners who are pathologists have expertise in illness and disease. This expertise is extremely helpful in all aspects of healthcare, from helping doctors in diagnosing and treating common diseases, to using pioneering technologies to treat patients with critical health conditions.
Modern anatomic pathology includes super-specialities such as,
- cardiacpathology
- pulmonary pathology
- neuropathology
- renalpathology
- gynaecologic pathology
- breast pathology
- dermatopathology
- gastrointestinal pathology
- oralpathology, and so on.
