Pathology Department

The Pathology Department is equipped with the latest accurate devices with the latest technology to provide you with the best accurate results. We receive the samples from the patients of Baheya whether by a needle biopsy to diagnose if this tumor is benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous), or even it is an active tumor in the breast. In addition, we provide also hormonal receptor analysis service that helps to describe the best treatment type for each case. The pathology report examines and diagnoses the type of tumor, its grade, stage, and its chance of relapse. The Pathology analysis is more different than any other examination because pathology analysis focuses on a biopsy sample of the tissue that provides enough specimen not only for diagnosis but for genetic analysis with specific information about the characteristics of the cancer cells, type of tumor, and every detail about it which helps your doctor recommend the best treatment options for you. To learn if you need a targeted therapy (Herceptin) or not, we provide you also with HER2 analysis which helps you to learn the grade or severity of the cancerous tumor, due to the multiplicity of tumor grades and types.
