 Molecular and Cellular Pathology, The University of Queensland, Australia
The study of pathology can be divided into general pathology that focuses on the causes and mechanisms of disease and systematic pathology which considers the spectrum of disease process within each major system of the body.
It is traditional to study general pathology first as this provides the science and terminology underlying the major categories of disease: inflammatory, neoplastic, cardiovascular, metabolic, genetic, degenerative, nutritional, autoimmune, trauamtic, congenital, iatrogenic and idiopathic.
The aim of pathology is to align both biomedical and clinical science to the individual needs of the patient and also to the community.
