S4 E2 – Detectives in White Lab Coats with Dr José Cândido Caldeira Xavier-Júnior
Manage episode 407172566 series 3558520
For this episode of Karger’s The Waiting Room Podcast, we spoke with Dr José Cândido Caldeira Xavier-Júnior, who is a pathologist. Pathology is a kind of invisible field in medicine. It happens behind closed doors – in the laboratory and in the morgue.
Mostly, pathologists are depicted as the ones who determine cause of death. However, this is only one side of the coin! A not so well-known fact is that pathologists are indispensable in helping clinicians to diagnose a condition and to decide on the best cure, especially in cancer.
On the role of a pathologist, Dr José Cândido Caldeira Xavier-Júnior also wrote three blog posts for The Waiting Room blog which you find here:
· The Role of a Pathologist in Diagnosis and Treatment: What Does a Pathologist Do in General? · The Role of a Pathologist in Diagnosis and Treatment: What Does a Pathology Report Contain? · The Role of a Pathologist in Diagnosis and Treatment: Pathology Is a Varied Medical Field
