Study Notes
Pathology
Anatomical Pathology
- Study of the structural and morphological changes in tissues and organs
- Involves the examination of biopsies and surgical specimens to diagnose diseases
- Techniques used:
- Gross examination: visual examination of organs and tissues
- Histopathology: microscopic examination of tissue samples
- Immunohistochemistry: uses antibodies to detect specific proteins in tissues
- Subspecialties:
- Cytopathology: study of individual cells and small clusters of cells
- Neuropathology: study of diseases of the nervous system
- Pediatric pathology: study of diseases in children
Molecular Pathology
- Study of the molecular mechanisms of disease
- Focuses on the analysis of DNA, RNA, and proteins to diagnose and understand diseases
- Techniques used:
- PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction): amplifies specific DNA sequences
- DNA sequencing: determines the order of nucleotides in DNA
- Microarrays: analyzes gene expression
- Next-generation sequencing (NGS): high-throughput DNA sequencing
- Applications:
- Genetic testing for inherited diseases
- Cancer diagnosis and monitoring
- Infectious disease diagnosis
Clinical Pathology
- Study of the laboratory analysis of bodily fluids, such as blood and urine
- Focuses on the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases through laboratory testing
- Subspecialties:
- Clinical chemistry: study of chemical components of blood and other bodily fluids
- Hematology: study of blood cells and blood clotting
- Microbiology: study of microorganisms and their role in disease
- Immunology: study of the immune system and its disorders
- Techniques used:
- Blood tests: measures various components of blood, such as glucose and cholesterol
- Urinalysis: examination of urine for abnormalities
- Coagulation studies: measures blood clotting function
