Do you know what a study of disease is? It is generally known as pathology. It involves a large amount of research and medical practices. A disease is diagnosed by analyzing the tissue, fluid samples from the body and body cells.    

Different types of Pathology  

Some important branches of pathology are:

I.Anatomical Pathology: Examination of the whole body (autopsy) to diagnose the disease

Cytopathology: Diagnosing disease on the cellular level. It is normally used to diagnose cancer

Dermatopathology: It is a subspecialty of anatomic pathology. The main focus is on the skin

Forensic Pathology: It is done to determine the cause of death by post mortem examination. It is often during criminal investigations

Histopathology: A microscopic examination of the human tissue

Neuropathology: A study of disease of nervous system tissue

Pulmonary pathology: It is a subspecialty of anatomic pathology. It is a study of disease of the lungs and thoracic pleura

Renal pathology: Diagnoses of the disease in the kidney

Surgical pathology: This is the primary area of practice for an anatomical pathologist. It involves a microscopic examination of surgical specimens and biopsies given by surgeons and non surgeons.

II.Clinical Pathology: The diagnosis of the disease is based on laboratory analysis of body fluids such as blood and urine

Hematopathology: A study of disease of blood cells, tissues and organs comprising the hemopoietic system

Immunopathology: Deals with an organism’s immune response to a certain disease.

Molecular pathology: Diagnoses of disease through examination of molecules within organs, tissues or body fluids

Oral and maxillofacial pathology: Disease is diagnosed through cell smears, and other tissue analysis.

A dreadful disease

Cancer is an abnormal cell growth with the potential to spread over a large area inside the body. A lump, abnormal bleeding, weight loss, prolonged cough can all be alarming symptoms of cancer. There are more than 200 types of cancer that can affect humans. Cancer treatment in Delhi requires the patient to go for surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hormonal therapy and biological therapy.

Cancer diagnosed

Once cancer is diagnosed the patient must be taken to a specialized hospital. The patient must be given utmost care and medication. The treatment can be very expensive, so having a medical insurance is good or you can go for government aided plans.
