Image for Radiology-Pathology Correlation

Radiology-Pathology Correlation

Radiology-Pathology correlation involves comparing medical imaging results, like X-rays or MRIs, with tissue examination findings from biopsies or surgeries to ensure accurate diagnosis. This process helps doctors confirm that imaging patterns match the actual disease or condition seen under the microscope. It improves diagnostic precision, guides appropriate treatment planning, and enhances understanding of complex or uncertain cases. Essentially, it bridges the gap between what is seen non-invasively through imaging and the detailed cellular information obtained from tissue analysis, leading to more accurate and reliable medical information.
