AB  - A  long  tradition  defines  the  scope  of  pathology  as  both  a  clinical  specialty  and  an  area  of  biomedical  research.  Although  rooted  in  the  correlation  of  anatomical  and  histological  changes  with  clinically  apparent  disease  (and  hence  the  iconic  images  of  autopsy  and  microscope),  modern  pathology  studies  the  causes  of  disease  (etiology)  and  their  expression/evolution  (pathogenesis)  at  the  molecular  level  using  the  tools  of  molecular  genetics  and  biochemistry  as  well  as  analysis  at  the  cellular  and  organ  system  levels.  Because  the  first  symptoms  and  signs  of  disease  are  often  those  of  the  body’s  response  to  injury,  the  pathologist  uses  this  response  to  provide  critical  clues  as  to  the  etiological  agent  and  the  likely  mode  of  pathogenesis.
