Abstract
Pathology is a multifaceted field that encompasses various branches specializing in different aspects of disease and disorder. This article provides an overview of three key areas within pathology: General Pathology, Speech Pathology, and Language Pathology. General Pathology focuses on the examination and diagnosis of diseases through the analysis of tissues, organs, and bodily fluids, employing techniques such as histopathology, cytopathology, and clinical pathology. Speech Pathology, on the other hand, addresses disorders related to speech and communication, aiming to improve speech clarity and effectiveness through targeted therapeutic interventions. Language Pathology deals with disorders related to language comprehension and processing, helping individuals enhance their understanding and use of language. By differentiating these specialized fields, the article highlights their unique roles and contributions to healthcare, illustrating how each area supports comprehensive patient care and improves quality of life.
