Overview
- The pathophysiology of disease involves the study of the biological and physical manifestations of a disease, as they correlate with the underlying abnormalities and physiological disturbances.
- Goal: to explain the biological mechanisms underlying the disease state.
- Appropriate content: A description of the abnormalities at a cellular and molecular level, the abnormalities at a gross and functional level, and the causative factor in the disease process. The description can also include a description of the genetic abnormalities, embryological and developmental abnormalities, pathogenesis, and pathology images.
