Authors' recommendations:
Morphological/ Interpretive diagnosis in the sub specialties of Anatomical Pathology, Cytology, Haematology, Microbiology and Genetic pathology is integral to the diagnosis and management of many diseases, particularly cancers.
For such complex diseases, making a definitive diagnosis can be difficult and a second opinion from a second pathologist with a particular expertise in the condition or type of cancer is sometimes required.
