Pathology is the medical specialty concerned with the study of the nature and causes of diseases. It underpins every aspect of medicine, from diagnostic testing and monitoring of chronic diseases to genetic research and blood-related conditions. It plays a vital role in accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning.
