Does Lack of Clinico-Pathological Correlation Means Lack of Communication between Clinician and Pathologist?
Dr. K Chandramouleeswari, Dr. Gautham Krishnamurthy
Abstract: Clinico-pathological correlation is the communication between the treating physician or surgeon and the diagnostician who is the pathologist. The role of the same is well understood well-spoken about but is it well practiced uniformly everywhere by all of us concerned? Here is our viewpoint as a surgeon and a pathology colleague, as passionate about a patient?s welfare as is my surgeon who faces his/her patient to explain the diagnosis and proceeds to treating him.
Keywords: clinico-pathological correlation, communication, diagnostic techniques, patient outcomes, clinical dilemmas
