The Histopathology laboratory at Pushpagiri Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre receives a wide range of specimens including small biopsies, core biopsies, and resection samples which are meticulously processed, reported, and stored for future reference.
We provide high-quality services as part of patient care and support cancer research.
Our laboratory maintains an extensive archive of paraffin-embedded tissue blocks, slides, and records allowing for retrospective analysis and research. We report around 800 malignancies per year. We also have a museum with a vast collection of carefully preserved specimens serving as a valuable resource for education and diagnostic reference.
