About Department
Pathology is the field that helps us understand how a disease impacts the body. Fundamentally, by the time symptoms appear in a patient, significant alterations have already transpired at the cellular, tissue, and organ levels. Pathology's job is to determine what these alterations mean and help doctors identify the illness.
The Department of Pathology at PMCH teaches students about disease processes in a way that helps them really grasp them. Our academic team teaches students how to do histology, haematology, and laboratory investigations. This helps them understand how lab results support clinical diagnosis. While theoretical information is important, students really learn when they observe disease patterns firsthand through microscopy and hands-on lab work.
Vision
PMCH's goal is to train clinicians to view disease processes from a scientific perspective and to use laboratory medicine effectively to make diagnoses.
Mission
- To help students grasp how diseases work and what the pathology results mean.
- To teach students about the lab work that goes into histopathology and haematological analysis.
- To explain how important laboratory tests are for making a clinical diagnosis.
- To give future doctors a strong base in diagnosis based on evidence.
