01Digestive, hepatic and pancreatic tissue interpretation
Digestive pathology connects the anatomical site, specimen type, architecture, cell changes, inflammation and clinical context. A superficial mucosal biopsy cannot independently demonstrate every transmural feature seen in a resection.
417 words, about 2 min02Breast, gynecologic and genitourinary morphology
A breast, gynecologic or genitourinary diagnosis integrates growth pattern, cell features, supporting structures and appropriate ancillary findings. Lobular and ductal breast patterns can differ in cohesion and E-cadherin expression, but a single stain is not an unconditional replacement for morphology.
408 words, about 2 min03Pulmonary, pleural, soft-tissue and bone pathology
A limited lung biopsy or aspirate must provide a reliable diagnosis while preserving material for relevant additional testing. TTF-1, p40 and other markers are selected for a real differential rather than ordered as an indiscriminate large panel.
414 words, about 2 min04Skin, head and neck, thyroid and nervous-system interpretation
Skin pathology considers epidermal relationship, dermal growth, cell morphology and the actual clinical site. Basaloid nests with palisading and retraction can suggest a basal-cell process, while a melanocytic differential requires an appropriate assessment of architecture and cytology.
401 words, about 2 min05Marrow and lymph-node pathological diagnosis
A lymph-node aspirate, cell block, core and excision provide different amounts of architectural information. A clonal B-cell population supports a lymphoproliferative assessment but is not enough to assign every subtype.
408 words, about 2 min06Cytological method, molecular assays, quality and autopsy
A cytology report first considers whether the material represents the target and is adequate for the actual task. Low cellularity, blood, degeneration, crush or preparation artifact can change confidence.
