Service Lines

Specialist Diagnostic Services

Our services are focused on cancer pathology and biomarker interpretation, delivered through integrated pathology and molecular platforms

Histopathology

Histopathology forms the foundation of cancer diagnosis. COP supports routine and complex tissue evaluation, including biopsy interpretation, tumour classification, and detailed pathological assessment that informs staging and treatment planning.

Cytopathology

Cytopathology services support the diagnostic evaluation of cells obtained through aspirates, smears or fluid samples. These analyses help identify malignancy, guide further investigations and support early diagnostic decision-making.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

IHC testing enables identification of tumour biomarkers and cellular markers critical to cancer classification and treatment selection. COP offers a wide range of IHC assays used in diagnosis, prognostic evaluation and companion biomarker testing.
