The universal clinic "Oberig" is a private hospital with its own full-fledged pathohistological center. The main section of the center's work is microscopic examinations of taken pieces of organs or tissues (histology) and cells (cytology) to determine changes in their structure in various diseases. In addition, pathohistological and cytological studies are carried out in order to:
- Establishing the form, nature and stage of the pathological process (inflammatory, tumor, benign, malignant, etc.)
- Diagnosis of diseases at the stage of preclinical manifestations
- Studying the dynamics of the pathological process, assessing the quality of treatment
- Determination of the radicality of the volume of surgical interventions.
- Histological examination is the gold standard for establishing a reliable diagnosis in case of suspected cancer. Without it, it is IMPOSSIBLE to prescribe adequate treatment.
In addition, histological examination is widely used in the diagnosis of non-neoplastic diseases, in particular in gynecology (determination of endocrine diseases and the causes of infertility, inflammatory and precancerous diseases of the cervix), hematology (identification of various forms of pathology), gastroenterology (diagnosis of early cancer, chronic gastritis, ulcers), hepatology (establishing the nature of liver damage, activity of the process, stage of the disease).
Further tactics of patient treatment, adequate therapy and prognosis of the entire disease as a whole depend on the quality work of the pathological center.
The histopathological center examines both biopsy and cytological material, which was taken by the doctors of the clinic "Oberig", and material from other clinics. But! He must strictly comply with the standard requirements for biopsy sampling and be appropriately referred by the attending physician.
If you have been prescribed a histological or cytological examination, make sure that it will be performed according to generally accepted European standards and you will receive a qualified diagnosis.
