pathology chapter 2 : introduction to pathology
infectious, nutritional, chemical and physical changes refers to
acquired etiology
what is general pathology ?
concerned with the common reaction of cells and tissues to injurious stimuli, often not tissue specific
what do you call the cause of the disease ?
etiology
what are the four aspects of a disease process that form the core of pathology
etiology pathogenesis morphologic changes clinical manifestations
what is systemic pathology ?
examines the alterations and underlying mechanisms in organ specific diseases
which subtype of pathology is concerned with the common reaction of cells and tissues to injurious stimuli, often not tissue specific
general pathology
list the classes of etiology
genetic acquired
inherited mutations and disease-associated gene variants , or polymorphisms refers to
genetic etiology
what is the difference between genetic and acquired etiology
genetic: inherited mutations and disease-associated gene variants, or polymorphisms acquired: infectious, nutritional ,chemical and physical changes
what is refer to the structural alterations in cells or tissue that are either characteristic of a disease or diagnostic of an etiologic process ( a diagnostic corner stone with limitations)
morphologic changes
what refers to the sequence of cellular biochemical ,and molecular events that follow the exposure of cells or tissues to an injurious agent
pathogenesis
what is the name give to the study of the structural, biochemical, and functional changes in cells, tissues, and organs that underlie disease. It serves as a bridge between the basic sciences and clinical medicine and is the scientific foundation for all of medicine
pathology
what are morphologic changes
refer to the structural alterations in cells or tissue that are either characteristic of a disease or diagnostic of an etiologic process ( a diagnostic corner stone with limitations)
what is pathogenesis
refers to the sequence of cellular biochemical ,and molecular events that follow the exposure of cells or tissues to an injurious agent ( on of the main domain of pathology)
who is know as the father of modern pathology ?
rudolf virchow
which subtype of pathology examines the alterations and underlying mechanisms in organ specific diseases
systemic pathology
what is etiology ?
the cause of the disease
who is rudolf virchow and what is he know for ?
the father of modern pathology
what is pathology ?
the study of the structural, biochemical, and functional changes in cells, tissues, and organs that underlie disease. It serves as a bridge between the basic sciences and clinical medicine and is the scientific foundation for all of medicine
how do virtually all diseases start
with molecular or structural alterations in cells
