Pathology Department
Pathology is a discipline that acts as a bridge between basic sciences and clinical medicine. A good liaison between clinicians and pathologists is vital in treating different diseases. Pathology encompasses various modalities used for diagnosis of these diseases. Without accurate diagnosis, the selection of a course of treatment for a particular disease may be limited. Pathology comprises four basic disciplines including Histopathology, Haematology, Chemical Pathology and Microbiology.
