CELLULAR PATHOLOGY
DEPARTMENT
The cellular pathology department provides services in:
Histopathology
Neuropathology
Cytopathology
Paediatric and Perinatal Pathology
Mortuary
Biomedical Imaging Unit
The department is integrated with the University of
Southampton's department of pathology which has a major
role in medical student education, and has active research
programs in both applied and basic experimental
pathology. We hold an important role in the training of junior
histopathologists and biomedical scientists.
The department is a major referral centre and the
consultant pathologists each specialise in one or more area
of pathology. Regional departments of paediatric and
perinatal pathology and neuropathology are based in the
department. The laboratory is recognised by the Institute of
Biomedical Science (IBMS) for training.
