A pathologist is a laboratory-based doctor (MBBS with FCPS, MD or M.Phil in Pathology) who diagnoses disease by examining blood, urine, body fluids, tissue and biopsy samples under the microscope and through laboratory tests. In Bangladesh, pathologists lead the diagnostic labs at hospitals and centres such as Popular, Labaid, Ibn Sina and BIRDEM, and they are the doctors behind your CBC, blood sugar, lipid profile, liver and kidney function, thyroid, dengue, hepatitis, biopsy and histopathology reports. Most patients meet a pathologist indirectly through their lab report, but a direct consultation is needed for procedures like FNAC (needle aspiration of a lump or thyroid swelling), bone marrow study, and when a clinician wants help interpreting confusing or abnormal results. In a consultation the pathologist reviews your symptoms and existing reports, performs or arranges the right tests, and explains what the findings mean. See a pathologist when your treating doctor advises a biopsy, FNAC or specialised lab work-up, or when you need an accurate, properly supervised diagnostic test before starting treatment.
