Micrograph showing contraction band necrosis, a histopathologic finding of myocardial infarction (heart attack).. Histopathology (compound of three Greek words: ἱστός histos 'tissue', πάθος pathos 'suffering', and -λογία-logia 'study of') is the microscopic examination of tissue in order to study the manifestations of disease.
Histopathology – the microscopic examination of stained tissue sections using histological techniques. The standard stains are haematoxylin and eosin , but many others exist. The use of haematoxylin and eosin-stained slides to provide specific diagnoses based on morphology is considered to be the core skill of anatomic pathology.
Histopathology is the branch of histology that includes the microscopic identification and study of diseased tissue. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] It is an important part of anatomical pathology and surgical pathology , as accurate diagnosis of cancer and other diseases often requires histopathological examination of tissue samples.

The Terminologia Histologica (TH) is the controlled vocabulary for use in cytology and histology. [1] [2] In April 2011, Terminologia Histologica was published online [3] by the Federative International Programme on Anatomical Terminologies (FIPAT), the successor of FCAT. It was intended to replace Nomina Histologica.

The frozen section procedure as practiced today in medical laboratories is based on the description by Dr Louis B. Wilson in 1905.

Cullen at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore also involved frozen section, but only after ...
Stains and dyes are frequently used in histology (microscopic study of biological tissues), in cytology (microscopic study of cells), and in the medical fields of histopathology, hematology, and cytopathology that focus on the study and diagnoses of diseases at the microscopic level.
