Track 14: Molecular Pathology

Molecular pathology is a branch below pathology which is focused in the education and study of disease through the examination of molecules inside organs, tissues or bodily fluids. Molecular pathology shares some feature of practice with both anatomic pathology as fine as clinical pathology, molecular biology, biochemistry, proteomics and genetics, and is sometimes considered as a "crossover" branch. It is multi-disciplinary in nature and focuses chiefly on the sub-microscopic features of disease. A main reproduction is that more exact analysis is possible when the diagnosis is based on together the morphologic differences in tissues (traditional anatomic pathology) and on molecular testing.
