Tiivistelmä
Histopathology is the study of changes in any tissue, animal or plant, associated with a disease or disorder (from ancient Greek words: ἱστός [histos] = tissue, πάθος [pathos] = disease/suffering, and -λογία = -logia). In the medical context, the examination starts with sampling, either during a surgical procedure or autopsy, after which the tissue is processed for viewing under a microscope. Forensic histopathology deals with the assessment of histological findings in any forensically relevant context and their significance as forensic evidence, with the ultimate goal to serve proper administration of justice. An autopsy is not complete and reviewable without histology. Clinical/surgical histopathology is beyond the scope of this article.
