Histopathology

Our goal is to define any histopathology identified to within the limits that light microscopy allows. In addition to routine haematoxylin and eosin preparations, we offer a spectrum of special stains and immunohistochemistry markers to expand our diagnostic armoury and our ability to maximise the information we can provide you.

Our process

We analyse all body tissue types including bone, skin and eyes.

We take great care to record surgical margins at the ‘trimming in’ stage of tissue processing. For excisional biopsies we select our sections to incorporate the most questionable areas so that our pathologists can then direct their examination towards these and offer you more accurate prognostic information.
