What is Histopathology <\/strong><\/div>\n
Histopathology is the diagnosis and study of disease at the tissue level and involves the examination of tissues and cells under the microscope. Histopathologists\/pathologists are responsible for the most accurate histological diagnosis of diseases in order to enable clinicians to provide the best treatment for their patients.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Why Histopathology is important<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Histopathologists are doctors who work closely with other clinical specialties and can arrive at a diagnosis from just a small piece of tissue coming from e.g., the skin, liver, kidney, or other organ. This is called a biopsy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Cancer diagnosis <\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

Histopathologists provide diagnostic services for the detection of cancer. After examining the tissue sample macroscopically, they then observe under the microscope the tissues and cells that have been removed from suspicious areas, identify the nature of the lesion and if it is malignant, they provide information to clinicians about the type of cancer, its grade, stage and in some cases the likelihood of response to targeted therapies. <\/span>
\nIn addition, the further development of techniques such as fluorescent in situ immunofluorescence (FISH), next-generation sequencing (NGS) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) places histopathologists in a key position in the ever-expanding field of molecular pathology.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Istomedica Laboratory performs histological examinations on the entire spectrum of tissues, including histochemical or immunohistochemical testing whenever this is deemed necessary for a more accurate diagnosis.
\nIn addition, the possibility of a frozen section is provided, which refers to the performance of histological examination during a surgical procedure and which is carried out in less than 20 minutes from the moment the sample is received in our laboratory.<\/div>\n
