MLT course and two value-added courses. A 24×7 Hematology and Clinical Pathology laboratory caters to in-patients and out-patients. This laboratory is a referral centre for surrounding places. The postgraduates are trained in the field of: Histopathology, Cytology and Haematology, Blood banking and molecular biology including flow cytometry,Neonatal Autopsy techniques with reporting and histotechnology
To be recognised for maintenance and enhancement of quality medical education, quality work in research & excellence in diagnostic services
Applying tools of Pathology science in support of public health and ongoing expansion of medical knowledge.
At BLDE(DU) Shri.B.M. Patil Medical College, the Department of Pathology is dedicated to advancing our understanding of disease through innovative research. Our multidisciplinary team leverages state-of-the-art molecular diagnostics, advanced imaging techniques, and comprehensive histopathological analysis to uncover the biological mechanisms behind various diseases. By integrating basic science with clinical insights, we strive to develop novel biomarkers and therapeutic strategies for early detection, accurate prognostication, and personalized patient care. Collaboration with other departments and external research institutions ensures that our findings translate into improved diagnostic and treatment options in clinical practice.
