Histopathology

Histopathology is the diagnosis and study of diseases of the tissues, and involves examining tissues and/or cells under a microscope. Histopathologists are responsible for making tissue diagnoses and helping clinicians manage a patient’s care. A histopathology laboratory avails a number of services that involve examining the tissues and ultimately detect diseases. The complete range of services offered by laboratories include techniques like necropsy to sophisticated histological processing, as well as expert evaluation by pathologists. Pathologists perform histopathology in a lab. They examine tissue under a microscope and develop a report of their findings. Histopathology reports include descriptions of the tissue, diagnosis, and prognosis. In addition to evaluating tissue, pathologists may also use other techniques to assess and diagnose cancer.
