Key Roles of Pathology in Internal Medicine

Accurate Diagnosis: Pathologists utilize microscopic examinations and various tests to identify the underlying causes of symptoms such as fever, pain, or weight loss.

Cancer Assessment: They evaluate whether a tumor is malignant, along with its type, grade, and stage. This critical information aids in determining the most effective treatment options, such as surgery or chemotherapy.

Precision Medicine: By analyzing genetic mutations, pathology contributes to the development of personalized treatments that target specific disease characteristics, thereby enhancing the likelihood of successful outcomes.

Monitoring Disease: Pathologists observe a disease's progression over time by repeatedly analyzing patient samples. This ongoing assessment helps evaluate treatment effectiveness and identify potential complications.

Guiding Treatment Decisions: The examination of bodily fluids and tissues provides essential insights for internal medicine physicians, enabling them to make informed treatment choices for a variety of conditions, including cardiovascular and infectious diseases.

Confirming Diagnoses: Often regarded as a "doctor's doctor," pathologists offer second opinions to confirm or refine the diagnoses made by primary physicians.
