Pathology: The study of disease. Pathology has been defined as "that branch of medicine which treats of the essential nature of disease. As a field of general inquiry and research, pathology addresses four components of disease: cause, mechanisms of development (pathogenesis), structural alterations of cells (morphologic changes), and the consequences of changes (clinical manifestations). A pathological condition is one caused by disease, rather than occurring physiologically.
The field of melanoma has been transformed by the parallel development of effective immune and targeted therapies. There is now strong evidence of cross-talk between oncogenic signaling...
