Where does Prof. Dr. Hatice Karaman work?

What does a pathologist do during diagnosis?
A pathologist identifies disease by examining tissue and cells from a biopsy or operation. Microscopic findings are combined with appropriate laboratory tests, and the pathology report records the diagnosis and features that may help the clinical team plan treatment.
What is a biopsy, and how does it relate to pathology?
A biopsy obtains a sample of cells or tissue to investigate a possible disease. Samples may be collected with a needle, during endoscopy or through surgery. Pathology then examines the sample; collecting it and interpreting it are complementary stages of diagnosis.
How do tissue examination and cytology differ?
Histology assesses cells together with their arrangement within a tissue sample. Cytology focuses on cells obtained from sources such as a smear, needle sample or body fluid. The type of examination depends on the sampled area and the clinical question being investigated.
