Pathology sectioning is the use of a specific slicer to slice diseased tissue removed from the body, not to cut meat on the body.
Pathology sections are usually made by wrapping the diseased tissue (usually removed from the body) in paraffin wax, then using a pathology slicer, slicing it into thin slices, then staining it with special stains, and finally placing it on a microscope to observe the cellular changes and diagnose the nature of the lesion.
The process of making a pathology section is generally divided into: extraction, fixation, wax dipping and embedding, slicing and patching, staining and sealing. It usually takes 5~7 days to issue a pathology report, which may vary from hospital to hospital.
Pathology section can provide important help for clinical diagnosis and treatment, and many valuable scientific research data can be obtained through clinical pathology analysis.
