What can I expect to find in my breast cancer pathology report?

Here is a brief explanation of the major sections of a breast cancer pathology report. Each laboratory or cancer center has its own format for its reports. The sections below are based on standardizing guidelines issued by the College of American Pathologists: 1.

Specimen: Describes where the tissue samples came from, such as from the breast, lymph nodes under your arm, or both.2. Clinical history/diagnosis: Describes the initial diagnosis of breast abnormality prior to the biopsy or surgery.3. Gross description: Describes what the pathologist saw in the tissue samples, including the size, weight, and color of each sample.4.

Microscopic description: Describes what the tissues and cancer cells looked like under the microscope.5. Special tests or markers: Describes the results of tests for proteins, genes, and the speed of cell growth.6. Summary or final diagnosis: Describes the important findings in each tissue sample.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
