How are Histological Changes Linked to Diagnostic Pathology?
Diagnostic pathology relies heavily on recognizing histological changes to identify diseases. Pathologists examine tissue biopsies for specific alterations that indicate particular conditions. For instance: - The presence of granulomas can indicate chronic infections like tuberculosis. - Amyloid deposits in tissues are a hallmark of amyloidosis. - The identification of specific patterns in glomeruli can help diagnose various kidney diseases.
