Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, a sophisticated diagnostic centre, NABL- and NABH-certified diagnostics centre, will assist you with your Histopathology-5 (Small) examination. Tissue samples can be examined under a microscope (histopathology) to allow doctors to determine if there are changes in the tissue, inflammation, infection, and suspicious tumours.

About Histopathology-5 (Small)

Histopathology-5 (Small) is the examination of a small piece of tissue that's taken from the body by a biopsy or a small surgery. The sample is then analysed, cut into sections, stained, and looked at under a microscope by a pathologist. Examination is useful to determine the abnormalities in tissue architecture and cell characteristics. Results may help the doctor make a diagnosis and/or may help the doctor determine the treatment options available, including other tests that might be conducted.

What is Histopathology-5 (Small)?

Histopathology is a study of tissues for the presence of pathological microscopic changes that are the hallmark of disease. A specimen that has been taken by a doctor is sent to a lab where it undergoes fixation, processing, embedding, cutting sections, and staining for microscopic examination. The pathologist looks at the structure and features of the cells in the tissue. Depending on the specimen and clinical findings, other sections, special stains, or other investigations may be requested.

Common Reasons for Histopathology-5 (Small)

• Localized Lesions: Examination of a lump, growth, or other localized abnormality.
• Suspected Tumours: Examination of tissue to help determine whether any type of tumour is present and if it will be cancerous or not.
• Inflammatory Conditions: Knowing the changes in tissue that occur with acute or chronic inflammation.
• Small Specimen Collections: Involves examining small samples taken from the skin or a superficial area of abnormality.
• Additional abnormal clinical findings: Tissues observed that were noted when the patient was in the clinic or from other tests.
• Follow-up Evaluation: Retesting of the selected tissue abnormalities in case of clinical indication.

Conditions Evaluated

Benign and Malignant Tissue Changes

The histologic abnormalities are of great assistance in differentiating benign problems from malignant ones and/or determining that another disease may be present. Interpretation is dependent on the specimen and clinical context.

Inflammatory Disorders

Microscopic examination can be used to recognise either acute or chronic inflammation and help to evaluate conditions in various tissues.

Infectious and Granulomatous Conditions

In a few infections, there are certain changes in tissues. Histopathology can be of assistance in determining the patterns, but further testing may be required to determine the underlying cause.

Skin and Soft-Tissue Lesions

The examination of small samples of skin and soft-tissue changes can be used to detect changes within the cells, connective tissue, and the overall structure.

Tissue Degeneration and Structural Abnormalities

The exam may reveal architectural changes, cellular changes, and degeneration that may be associated with other medical diseases.
