Abstract:
New techniques in surgical pathology at the cellular and molecular levels offer the clinician help in determining modalities of treatment of specific diseases. In addition to routine staining, adjunctive tests such as immunohistochemical analysis, and the various methods of evaluating nucleic acid have helped make this possible. The efficacy of fine-needle aspiration biopsy has been enhanced by these diagnostic aids that enable the assessment of information from small amounts of tissue.
