The Department of Pathology plays a pivotal role in supporting the Institute’s patient-care services by providing comprehensive diagnostic facilities essential for accurate disease detection, monitoring, and prognostication. Currently, the Clinical Pathology, Hematology, Cytopathology, and Histopathology laboratories offer a wide spectrum of routine and specialized tests across morphological, hematological, and cytological domains. The Department is also expanding its services to include advanced biomarker assessment through molecular pathology, genomics, and proteomics-based techniques. In addition, emphasis is placed on strengthening primordial and primary screening programs for diseases prevalent in the community. To ensure the highest standards of quality, accuracy, and reliability, the Department has initiated the process for obtaining NABL accreditation for its clinical and anatomic pathology laboratory services

Services Available:

1. Histopathological examination -Biopsies and Specimens
2. Frozen Section
3. Immunohistochemistry
4. Immunofluorescence
5. Forensic pathology-autopsies
6. Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology
7. Cell Block
8. Exfoliative cytology
9. Complete blood count
10. APTT
11. PT
12. Bone marrow aspiration
13. Bone marrow biopsy
14. CSF Analysis
15. Semen Analysis
16. ESR

The Department strives to nurture the next generation of Pathologists by strengthening education in diagnostic histopathology, cytology, hematopathology, transfusion medicine, and molecular pathology. With MBBS teaching initiated in January 2021 and the subsequent launch of the MD (Pathology) program in January 2024, the Department continues to broaden its academic horizons. It offers specialized training to allied specialties and is actively working towards introducing additional postgraduate and fellowship courses through interdisciplinary collaborations. Regular CMEs, workshops, and practical training sessions ensure continual exposure to evolving technologies and advancements in pathology. The Department also plays a key role in teaching Pathology to B.Sc. (Nursing) students of the Institute.
