A Pathologist plays an important role in the diagnosis and evaluation of diseases by examining blood, cells, tissues, and other clinical samples. Pathology helps doctors understand disease conditions and supports appropriate clinical management.
The Department of Pathology covers several important areas including Hematology, Cytology, Histopathology, and Clinical Pathology. These areas support the diagnosis and evaluation of a wide range of medical conditions.
FNAC, or Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology, is a diagnostic procedure in which a fine needle is used to obtain cells from a selected area for cytological examination. It can help in the evaluation of certain lumps, swellings, and other lesions.
Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy are diagnostic procedures used to examine bone marrow. They can provide important information about blood-forming tissues and are used in the evaluation of various hematological conditions, including leukemias.
Hematology focuses on the study and diagnosis of diseases and disorders involving blood and blood-forming tissues. The pathology services include diagnostic evaluation of hematological conditions, including leukemias.
Histopathology involves the examination of tissue samples under a microscope to identify changes associated with disease. It is an important diagnostic area for evaluating various tissue lesions and tumors.
Cytology is the study and examination of individual cells to help identify abnormal or disease-related changes. It forms one of the key areas of expertise within the Department of Pathology.
Pathological examination plays an important role in the evaluation of tumors. Depending on the clinical situation and sample available, diagnostic assessment may involve cytology or histopathological examination to study the cells or tissues.
Clinical Pathology is an area of laboratory medicine concerned with the examination and interpretation of clinical samples to support disease diagnosis and patient care. It is one of the core areas of expertise in the Department of Pathology.
