Anatomic Pathology Laboratory
The Anatomic Pathology Laboratory provides specialized testing of tissue and cell samples to help diagnose cancer, infections, and other medical conditions. Services include examination of tissue from areas such as the breast, gastrointestinal system, gynecologic system, and soft tissue, as well as testing of individual cells collected during medical procedures. We recognize that the handling of tissue specimens may have cultural or traditional significance.
