Pathology

The goal of pathology examination of tissue is to provide accurate, specific and sufficiently comprehensive diagnosis to enable the treating physician to develop an optimal plan of treatment. There are hundreds of varieties of tumors, most with characteristic biology, that require accurate diagnosis by pathologists. Data on markers with prognostic and predictive significance is also routinely incorporated into pathology reports, allowing individualized treatment plans for patients.

The pathology department houses an integral part of the hospital; the Hospital Based Registry which comes directly under the National Cancer Registry. This is where the patients diagnosed with cancer and admitted to the hospital are all registered.
