histopathological diagnoses

How is a Histopathological Diagnosis Made?

The process begins with the collection of a tissue sample via biopsy or surgery. The sample undergoes fixation to preserve its structure, followed by embedding in paraffin wax. Thin sections are then cut, mounted on slides, and stained with various dyes to highlight different structures. The stained slides are examined under a microscope by a histopathologist, who looks for abnormalities in the tissue architecture and cell morphology.
