Autopsy pathology
Autopsy pathology is the detailed examination of a person's body after death to determine the cause of death and to understand any diseases or injuries present. The pathologist carefully analyzes organs, tissues, and fluids, often making microscopic investigations. This process helps identify medical conditions, assess the effectiveness of treatments, and gather information for family or legal reasons. Autopsies provide valuable insights that can contribute to medical science and improve future diagnoses and therapies.
