Pathologists examine biopsies of body tissue, larger (surgical) resections and cells from body fluids. Using macroscopic and microscopic examination, the pathologist will make a diagnosis and advise the attending doctor or general practitioner. This examination is an important part in the diagnosis of cancer, as well as inflammatory reactions in organs.

As a patient, you have no direct contact with this department. Your doctor or general practitioner will discuss the result of a pathological examination with you.

The oral and maxillofacial surgery department is part of our head and neck centre, together with the nose, throat and ear diseases department.

Radiotherapy is also known as radiation therapy. Radiotherapy is a medical treatment using radioactive or ionizing rays. This treatment aims to destroy malignant cells (cancer). Along with other treatment techniques such as surgery and chemotherapy, radiotherapy can fight cancer. Radiation therapy for cancer is usually done externally with appropriate equipment or internally by introducing radioactive sources into the body.
Radiation is sometimes used to treat benign growths and other diseases.
