Cytopathology  is a branch of pathology that studies and diagnoses diseases on the cellular level. A common application of cytopathology is the Pap smear, used as a screening tool, to detect precancerous cervical lesions and prevent cervical cancer. Cytopathology is also commonly used to investigate thyroid lesions, diseases involving sterile body cavities (peritoneal, pleural, and cerebrospinal), and a wide range of other body sites. It is usually used to aid in the diagnosis of cancer, [...]

Pathology as a discipline provides critical information in the diagnosis and monitoring of disease. The use of laboratory and pathology services has been increasing over the years, both in the number of tests requested and their relative impact on clinical decision-making. It is estimated that about two-thirds of important clinical decisions are based on data from pathology laboratories . Furthermore, outcomes research, clinical guidelines, performance improvement , and quality assurance programs also depend on data [...]

Is Subcutaneous Suture Necessary? Most surgery descriptions in books suggest that subcutaneous soft tissue is repaired using absorbable sutures at the end of surgery and after closing the fascia; then, the skin is repaired by non-absorbable sutures. Subcutaneous absorbable sutures are known to have several advantages like omitting the subcutaneous for avoiding seroma collection , reducing tension in wound edges for bringing the sides together and having a softer scar after suturing. However, some outcomes [...]

Nandita Vijay, Bengaluru Saturday, March 31, 2012, 08:00 Hrs  [IST] Global pharmacovigilance companies are now pursuing a path of  risk management because of  the stringent regulatory inspections and penalties imposed for non-compliance. This has led to high staff turnover at not just the regulatory offices but departments of pharmacovigilance at companies and clinical research organizations (CROs) abroad. In this scenario India has a chance to increase its presence in supporting pharmacovigilance assignments for the developed markets. [...]

  A significant obstacle to progress in understanding psychiatric disorders is the difficulty in obtaining living brain tissue for study so that disease processes can be studied directly. Recent advances in basic cellular neuroscience now suggest that, for some purposes, cultured neural stem cells may be studied in order to research psychiatric disease mechanisms. But where can one obtain these cells outside of the brain? Increasingly, schizophrenia research is turning to the nose. Strange as [...]
