Diagnosis
• What is “Diagnosis”? – The formal name(s) used to describe a patient’s disease – The process of identifying a disease based on the
patient’s symptoms, the doctor’s findings, and the results of investigations and laboratory tests
• What do you need to make a diagnosis?– A system of classification that supplies the necessary
names, definitions, and criteria – The means to ascertain the defining characteristics of a
disease in the individual patient

Learning Pathology:
• General Pathology – Common changes in all tissues.
