Histopathology – Accurate Diagnosis Through Tissue Examination

What is Histopathology?

Histopathology is the microscopic examination of tissue samples to detect diseases, including cancers, infections, and inflammatory conditions. It plays a crucial role in diagnosing medical conditions by analyzing tissue structures, cellular changes, and disease patterns. This test is often performed on biopsy samples or surgically removed tissues to provide accurate and detailed insights into a patient’s health.

Types of Histopathology Tests

  1. Biopsy Analysis

    • Examines small tissue samples taken from the body to detect abnormalities.
    • Commonly used for diagnosing cancers, infections, and autoimmune diseases.
  1. Cytopathology (Cell Examination)

    • Involves studying individual cells from body fluids or tissues.
    • Includes tests like Pap smear (cervical cancer screening) and FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology).
  2. Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

    • Uses special stains and antibodies to detect specific proteins in tissues.
    • Helps identify cancer subtypes and guide treatment decisions.
  3. Frozen Section Analysis

    • Provides a rapid diagnosis during surgery to assist surgeons in real-time decision-making.
    • Commonly used in oncology and organ transplantation.
  4. Molecular Histopathology

    • Identifies genetic mutations and molecular changes in tissues.
    • Helps in the early detection of genetic disorders and targeted cancer therapies.

Why is Histopathology Important?

  • Detects cancer at an early stage, improving treatment outcomes.
  • Identifies infections, autoimmune disorders, and chronic inflammatory diseases.
  • Helps doctors determine the severity, progression, and best treatment options for various conditions.
  • Assists in surgical decision-making and post-treatment monitoring.

Who Should Get a Histopathology Test?

  • Patients with suspected tumors or abnormal tissue growth.
  • Individuals experiencing chronic inflammation or unexplained symptoms.
  • People undergoing surgery for cancer or other tissue-related diseases.
  • Those with a family history of cancer or genetic disorders.
