Pathology is a systematic scientific study of diseases. It is in general comprises scientific knowledge and diagnostic procedures essential for the understanding of illnesses and their causes. This information in turn is vital for their effective prevention and appropriate treatment.
Pathology essentially embraces the functional and structural changes observed in diseases. These changes are seen from the molecular level to the effects on the individual patient. It is a continually evolving discipline as new research illuminates our knowledge and facts of diseases.
The primary aim of pathology is the identification of the causes and mechanism of the disease. These will eventually lead to successful therapy and disease prevention. Without pathology, the practice of medicine would still be reliant on fiction and assumptions, and consequently be ineffective.
Pathology in clinical practice includes several subspecialties. The subspecialties comprise of histopathology, cytopathology, haematology, microbiology, immunology, chemical pathology, medical genetics and forensic pathology. These subdivisions are more important professionally than educationally. This is because pathology must be approached in an integrated manner, for the body and diseases make no difference between these professional subdivisions.
