CYTOLOGY & HISTOLOGY
The Histopathology and Cytopathology Department in Biomedical and Clinical Sciences Specializes in Analysing Tissues and Cells for Abnormalities Using Advanced Staining and Histological Methods. They Play a Pivotal Role in Diagnosing Conditions Like Cancer Through Skin Biopsies and Assessing the Effectiveness of Treatments, Exemplified by Monitoring Tamoxifen’s Impact on Breast Cancer. Furthermore, the Department is Instrumental in Preventive Healthcare, Notably Through the Papanicolaou (Pap) Tests for Early Cervical Cancer Detection. Their Expertise Establishes the Department’s Crucial Role in Diagnosis, Treatment, and Prevention Within Healthcare Sciences.
