Histopathology & Cytopathology

About Conference

Histopathology is a topic that goes beyond medical guidelines of professionals. Histopathology 2022 puts together all the extroverts under one umbrella with current progress.  Histopathology is the general study of disease, incorporating a wide range of departments of biological science research and medical fields to describe work within the modern medical field of general pathology, which comprises the diagnosis of any specific disease generally over tissue, cell, and body fluid samples analysis. The pathology practitioner's physician is called a pathologist. Laboratory medicine is the medicine branch in which tissue, fluid or complex tissue examples are examined outside.

Histopathology 2022 will exhibit the products and services from commercial and non-commercial organizations like Pathology Lab Equipment manufacturers, Clinical Trial Sites, Business delegates, lab equipment, Cell Diagnostics Laboratories, and Equipment Manufacturers.

We appreciate all interested participants to unite for our conference on 3rd World Congress on Histopathology & Cytopathology during July 18-19, 2022 at Brisbane, Australia.

Sessions/Tracks

Track 1: Histopathology

Histopathology is a scientific study of the disease in tissues and cell levels. Despite an ancient practice, histopathology has reserved one of the substantial sections of disease studies, both in the medical and veterinary fields in the modern scientific age. During the current molecular era, some improvements have been made to this practice. The initial change in histopathology is the introduction of immunohistochemistry, which plays an incredible role in the diagnosis of the tumor.  

Track 2: Cytopathology

Cytopathology is the branch of pathology that studies and diagnoses diseases at the cellular level. It is generally used in samples of free cells or tissue fragments, unlike histopathology; Cytopathology is best used as one of the three tools, the second and third being physical examination and medical imaging. Cytopathology is commonly used to investigate diseases that involve a wide variety of locations on the body, often to help diagnose cancer, but also to diagnose some infectious diseases and other inflammatory conditions. Cytopathology is a diagnostic technique that examines cells from various parts of the body to determine the cause or nature of the disease.

Track 3: Immunofluorescence

This is a cell imaging technique and is organism used commonly in laboratories. A glowing microscope is used in this system and is run primarily for microbiological studies. The antibodies used in this method are conjugated chemically with fluorescent dyes which are then called labelled antibodies. These antibodies are later on attached to the specific cellular antigens. This fundamentally valid method regularly practiced by the scientists to evaluate the localized and endogenous points of protein and antigens expressions.

Track 4: Neuroimaging studies

It is a kind of new recycled technique for brain imaging. Through his technique, possible changes are visualized in the diseased brain. This technique is being used extensively in babies and young children. Because in youth, changes in the brain are observed very quickly. Brain imaging systems allow for a friendly neuroreceptor and neurophysiology procedure. These images are delicate and powerful cogs for research purposes, especially during pathophysiological studies of some of the most important depressions. This practice is currently being used to observe the brain's functioning capabilities and how the brain is performing several important tasks, including language processing.

Track 5: Digital pathology

This histological-based assessment revealed that lymphocytes that are infiltrating tumors as a substitute for responses linked to host immunity are being shown to be predictive and possibly chemopredictive in triple-negative and HER2-positive breast cancers. However, the cooperation of the mentioned lymphocytes, mediators, tumor cells, micro environmental characteristics, their number and associations are still to be explored. It is envisaged that a tool called digital pathology will be used to assess these targeted resources and chemotherapeutic reactions in the patient. Based on digital pathology, an image analysis algorithm is being developed to recognize lymphocytes, stromal and neoplastic cells, in addition to obtaining an image of the slides stained with H&E

Track 6: Improvements in histopathology

Histopathology is being polished in corresponding with sub-atomic strategies in the innovatively evolved world, and less created nations are as yet contending to normalize this method. Histopathology experts utilized slides arranged totally as far as development designs, invaded cells and tissue morphology with a typical staining convention. H&E staining is in effect generally utilized in histopathology and, at present, a few explicit stains are being set up. The reason for these stains is to distinguish the particular influenced tissues subsequent to applying various colors. Different unique colors have been created and are as a rule effectively rehearsed in prestigious set up research centers. Exceptional staining encourages the separation and ID of the slides, which are then exposed to a fast automated histomorphometric determination.

Track 7: Cancer cytopathology

Cancer cytopathology studies all tissue in contrast to histopathology and is generally used in samples of free cells or tissue fragments. Cytopathology generally helps in the diagnosis of cancer and also in the diagnosis of certain infectious diseases and other inflammatory conditions. Cytopathology tests are sometimes called smear tests, because samples can be smeared under a glass microscope.

Track 8: Hematopathology

Hematopathology is the study of diseases and disorders that affect blood cells, their production and any organs and tissues involved in hematopoiesis (including constituents, such as white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets) and the tissues and organs that make up the hematopoietic system. The hematopoietic system affects tissues and organs that mainly produce and / or host hematopoietic cells and includes bone marrow, lymph nodes, thymus, spleen and other lymphoid tissues. The hematopathologist reviews biopsies of lymph nodes, bone marrow and other tissues involved by an infiltrate of cells in the hematopoietic system.

Track 9: Forensic pathology

Forensic pathology focuses on determining the cause of death by post-mortem examination of a corpse or partial remains. An autopsy is commonly performed by a coroner, usually during criminal investigations. Where coroners are often asked to confirm the identity of a corpse. Where deaths are of unknown cause and those considered unnatural are investigated in this forensic pathology. Methods that forensic scientists use to determine an individual's death include examining tissue samples to identify the presence or absence of natural disease and other microscopic findings, interpretations of toxicology in tissues and body fluids to determine the chemical cause of overdoses , poisoning or other cases involving toxic agents and examination of the injury.

Track 10: Immunopathology

Immunopathology is a branch of science that deals with immune responses associated with diseases and includes the study of the pathology of an organism, organ system or disease in relation to the immune system and immune responses. When a foreign antigen enters the body, there is a specific or non-specific response to the antigen. These responses are due to the immune system fighting foreign antigens, whether harmful or not. There are certain problems with the immune system that can lead to more serious illnesses. These illnesses can be due to one of the following problems.

Track 11: Neuropathology

Neuropathology is the study of disease of nervous system tissue, usually in the form small surgical biopsies or sometimes whole body in the case of autopsy. Neuropathology also relates to forensic pathology because brain disease or brain injury can be related to cause of death. Neuropathology should not be confused with neuropathy, which refers to disorders of the nerves. A person, who specializes in neuropathology, by completing a fellowship after a residency in anatomical or general pathology, is called a neuropathologist. Neuropathology is a subspecialty of anatomic pathology, neurology, and neurosurgery. In many English-speaking countries, neuropathology is considered a subfield of anatomical pathology.
