Neuropathology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis of diseases of the nervous system. It is a branch of pathology, which deals with the diagnosis of diseases of the body at the cellular level. Neuropathologists observe and analyze nervous tissue, such as neurons or glial cells, under a microscope to identify changes associated with diseases. This requires specialized knowledge of the structure and function of the nervous system and its components. Neuropathologists can give insight into the molecular and cellular events that leads to neurological disorders. Neuropathology normally consists of a full clinical history, including imaging and laboratory tests, the performance of tissue examinations, and the interpretation of results. The examination of nervous tissues begins with a gross examination and may include immunofluorescence, electron microscopy, and biochemical assays. Neuropathologists often collaborate with neurologists, neurosurgeons, psychiatrists, radiologists, and other healthcare providers to develop a comprehensive understanding of neurological diseases. Depending on the findings, therapies can be recommended to manage or eliminate the disease. The exact cause of a neurological disorder can be difficult to determine and may involve genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Neuropathologists are uniquely qualified to study these factors in detail in order to advance researchers’ understanding of the underlying contributing factors in neurological disorders. This can help medical care providers better diagnose, treat, and prevent them. In addition to diagnostics, neuropathologists also conduct laboratory experiments in tissue cultures and under the microscope to learn more about the molecular and cellular mechanisms of neurological diseases. They may also conduct histopathology to identify and classify neuronal injury. Understanding the destructive processes in the nervous system can help scientists develop treatments that can modify the disease progression of certain neurological disorders.
