Histopathology plays a role in medical diagnostics, particularly in the detection and analysis of tissue abnormalities and malignancies.
This discipline helps in diagnosing a broad spectrum of conditions, ranging from inflammatory and infectious diseases, to benign and malignant tumors.
The typical process starts with the careful preparation of tissue samples, which are preserved and fixed to halt decay, embedded in paraffin to provide stability and then precisely cut into very thin slices.
These slices are treated with various stains, which enhance contrast and allow different cellular components to be seen via digital microscopy.
This process allows pathologists to examine the architecture of cells and tissues at a microscopic level.
This examination provides critical information, such as the presence of specific cellular changes associated with different types of cancer, allowing for accurate diagnosis and informing the choice of treatment strategies.
Moreover, histopathology can also reveal details about the aggressiveness of a disease and predict its likely progression, which is invaluable in managing patient care.
At our UKAS ISO 15189:2012 accredited laboratory, our small team of 6 admin and biomedical scientists and 7 Histopathologists process and report approximately 17,000 GI histopathology cases per annum.
