Pathology Review

Expert pathologist review of biopsies, cytology, and tissue samples

Pathology is the gold standard for cancer diagnosis, yet pathologist interpretation can vary. Expert pathology review by subspecialized Chinese pathologists provides confirmation or refinement of your diagnosis. Using digital pathology technology, slides can be reviewed remotely with the same accuracy as in-person examination. This service is crucial for confirming cancer type, grade, and stage before major treatment decisions.

Частые вопросы

How do I get my pathology slides for review?
Contact the pathology lab that processed your biopsy. They can prepare slides for shipment or provide digital files. We coordinate this process and provide shipping instructions. Most labs are familiar with second opinion requests.
Can you review digital pathology images I already have?
Yes, if your hospital uses digital pathology, we can review existing whole slide images. This speeds up the process and eliminates shipping. We support standard DICOM and proprietary formats from major scanners.
What if additional testing is needed?
If the reviewing pathologist recommends additional immunohistochemistry or molecular testing, we coordinate with the original lab or our partner labs. We will quote any additional costs before proceeding.
How are discrepancies handled?
If our review identifies significant discrepancies, we clearly explain the differences and their clinical implications. We can facilitate conference calls between pathologists to discuss findings and reach consensus when appropriate.
