About us
Pathology is the science at the heart of modern medicine, vital for the diagnosis and clinical management of disease. Loma Labs aim to advance the science and practice of pathology, to provide public education, to promote research in pathology and to disseminate the results.
The practice of pathology is promoted by Loma Labs, which also ensures – high standards of knowledge and expertise are maintained in all areas. This booklet aims to inform you about the work of Loma Labs explaining and illustrating it with real-life cases.
A Hidden Science
That’s the reality of modern pathology – it’s the hidden science that every day saves lives by helping doctors to make the right decisions.
Discovering disease
Pathologists study the causes of disease and the ways in which disease processes affect our bodies. Recognising the patterns that disease takes allows us to understand what’s at the root of a problem, enabling accurate diagnosis. And following up this understanding of what has gone wrong helps us devise treatments and put preventative measures in place.
