ANATOMIC PATHOLOGY
Anatomic pathology is the branch of medicine that investigates the macroscopic and microscopic alterations affecting human tissues as a result of disease processes in the organs.
By analyzing these alterations, anatomic pathology aims to interpret the various clinical manifestations of disease and to formulate a diagnosis.
To diagnose ongoing diseases and to guide surgical therapeutic strategies and decisions, this discipline relies on the analysis of biopsies and surgical specimens.
