How is tissue obtained for pathology examination?
The pathologist examines cells or tissues obtained during a biopsy (a procedure that removes a cell or tissue specimen for examination by a pathologist) or surgery, as well as cells or tissues obtained from bodily fluids.
In most cases, a biopsy or surgery is required to remove cells or
tissues for examination
under a microscope.
The following are some common methods for performing a biopsy:
To remove tissue or fluid, a needle is used.
An endoscope (a
thin, lighted tube) is used to examine and remove cells or tissues from inside the
body.
Surgery is used
to remove a portion or the entire tumour. When the entire tumour is removed,
some normal tissue around the tumour is usually removed as well.
Tissue removed during a biopsy is sent to a pathology laboratory and
sliced into thin sections for examination under a microscope. This is known as
a histologic (tissue) examination and is usually the most accurate way of
determining the presence of cancer. Pathologists may also look at cytology
(cell) material. Urine, cerebrospinal fluid (the fluid surrounding the brain
and spinal cord), sputum (lung mucus), peritoneal (abdominal
cavity) fluid, pleural (chest cavity) fluid, cervical or vaginal smears, and
fluid removed during a biopsy all contain cytological material.
