Pathology
Pathology is the medical specialty concerned with the study of the nature and causes of disease. It’s a critical part of every aspect of medicine— from diagnostic testing and monitoring of chronic diseases to cutting-edge genetic research and blood transfusion technologies.
Pathologists are physicians who have received advanced training and specialization that enables them to make diagnoses of various illnesses by studying blood, fluid and tissue samples. Pathologists diagnose every detected cancer in the world.
