Histopathology

The Types of Sample Collection Methods

In most cases, biopsy is collected by sergon, gynaecologist or a dermatologist and sent information to lab. In some cases, samples can be collected for histopathology testing by the following method:

• Needle – We do ture cut biopsies to remove tissue for analysis of cancers and malignant tumours. This may be direct or ultrasound / CT guided
• Endoscopy – Some labs also rely on endoscopy to collect tissue samples from the internal organs.
