Pathological specimen

A pathological anatomical examination (PAI) is a study that is carried out after the death of a patient to determine the condition of his organs and tissues. This is an important stage in medical diagnosis, as it allows you to establish the cause of the disease and choose the right treatment.

PAI is carried out in specialized laboratories and includes the following stages:

  1. Collection of tissue samples: For the study, tissue samples must be obtained from different areas of the patient's body. This is usually done through a biopsy, where a small piece of tissue is taken from an organ or tissue.

  2. Preparing samples for research: tissue samples are treated with special solutions to remove all unnecessary substances and prepare them for analysis.

  3. Sample Analysis: Tissue samples are analyzed using various techniques such as microscopy, histology and immunohistochemistry. These methods make it possible to determine the structure of tissues, identify the presence of pathological changes and establish the cause of the disease.

  4. Interpretation of results: Tissue analysis results are interpreted by a pathologist. It determines what changes have been detected in tissues and how they relate to the patient's disease.

  5. Conclusion: based on the data obtained, the pathologist draws up a conclusion, which includes a description of the condition of the tissues and possible causes of the disease. The conclusion is used to make a diagnosis and choose the right treatment.

It is important to note that PAI is an important step in medical diagnosis and helps doctors more accurately determine the cause of the disease and prescribe the correct treatment. However, PAI must be strictly controlled to avoid errors and misuse of research results.
