Preparing for Histology Keighley: Complete UK Guide
What Is Histology?
Histology is the microscopic examination of tissue to determine whether it is benign, pre-cancerous, or cancerous. It provides a clear diagnosis and ensures appropriate follow-up care where necessary.
Histology is usually arranged following lesion or cyst removal. Your clinician will explain why histology is recommended and what the process involves. No special preparation is normally required from patients.
How Does Histology Work?
Once a lesion or tissue sample is removed, it is carefully preserved in a special medical solution to prevent any changes to the cells. The sample is then securely packaged and sent to an accredited UK laboratory.
At the laboratory, specialist pathologists process the tissue into very thin sections, stain them with medical dyes and examine them under a microscope. This detailed examination allows them to assess the structure of the cells and identify whether the tissue is benign, pre-cancerous or shows signs of abnormal changes.
A formal laboratory report is then prepared and sent back to your clinician. Your clinician will explain the results clearly and advise whether any further care, monitoring or treatment is required.
What Happens During the Process?
The tissue sample is taken during your minor surgical procedure and placed into a medical preservative solution to protect the cells. It is carefully labelled with your details to ensure accurate identification and secure handling.
The sample is then transported to an accredited UK laboratory for specialist analysis. Once examined, a detailed histology report is prepared and sent back to your clinician. Your clinician will contact you to explain the results clearly and advise on any further monitoring, treatment, or referral if required.
