Descriptions of pathology samples to be collected or tested are required to enable the laboratory to conduct the right investigation and the pathologist to interpret and report on the results clearly and unambiguously.

This reference set contains terminology for describing the sample to be collected or tested in a pathology investigation. It supports the accurate and unambiguous electronic communication and exchange of information relating to pathology result reporting between a pathology provider to a requesting clinician, or other approved recipient.
