Pathology
Proficient Pathologists & Accurate Analyses
Our team of MCMC pathologists have extensive experience with diagnosing
diseases by utilizing our state-of-the-art laboratory technology. We are
able to analyze different samples using a variety of multidisciplinary
medical techniques and procedures. The results we produce are often necessary
for doctors to complete their daily activities when dealing with patients
who are suffering from previously unidentifiable medical conditions. Our
efficient line of communication allows us to convey the test results to
the doctors and physicians as quickly as possible, because we understand
the importance of quickly diagnosing unknown diseases.
Regarding cancer in particular, our pathologists will be looking at the
disease's:
-
Condition- whether or not it is invasive
-
Grade- how the cancer cells look in comparison to the unaffected cells
-
Mitotic rate- how quickly the cancer cells are dividing
-
Tumor margin- determines whether or not the cancer is still in the body
-
Lymph nodes- determines if the cancer has spread to other parts of the body
-
Stage- signifies the overall condition of the cancer
