Pathologists examine biopsies of body tissue, larger (surgical) resections and cells from body fluids. Using macroscopic and microscopic examination, the pathologist will make a diagnosis and advise the attending doctor or general practitioner. This examination is an important part in the diagnosis of cancer, as well as inflammatory reactions in organs.
