Micrograph showing contraction band necrosis, a histopathologic finding of myocardial infarction (heart attack). Histopathology (compound of three Greek words: ἱστός histos 'tissue', πάθος pathos 'suffering', and -λογία-logia 'study of') is the microscopic examination of tissue in order to study the manifestations of disease.
The histological slides are then interpreted diagnostically and the resulting pathology report describes the histological findings and the opinion of the pathologist. In the case of cancer, this represents the tissue diagnosis required for most treatment protocols.
Pathognomonic (synonym pathognomic [1]) is a term, often used in medicine, that means "characteristic for a particular disease".A pathognomonic sign is a particular sign whose presence means that a particular disease is present beyond any doubt.
The authors emphasized that the findings reflect a problem that affects all of science and not just psychology, and that there is room to improve reproducibility in psychology. In 2021, the project showed that of 193 experiments from 53 top papers about cancer published between 2010 and 2012, only 50 experiments from 23 papers could be replicated.
Histopathology – the microscopic examination of stained tissue sections using histological techniques. The standard stains are haematoxylin and eosin, but many others exist. The use of haematoxylin and eosin-stained slides to provide specific diagnoses based on morphology is considered to be the core skill of anatomic pathology.

A micrograph of an exfoliative cytopathology specimen (Pap test, Pap stain). In this method, cells are collected after they have been either spontaneously shed by the body ("spontaneous exfoliation"), or manually scraped/brushed off of a surface in the body ("mechanical exfoliation").
Marked atypia of type 2 pneumocytes is a characteristic finding in association with treatment with busulfan and other chemotherapeutic agents..
