Description
Pathology medicine is a medical specialty that studies abnormal conditions' structural and functional changes as well as their underlying causes. Religious prohibitions against autopsies stymied early attempts to study pathology. However, in the late middle Ages, these restrictions gradually eased, allowing autopsies to determine the cause of death-the foundation of pathology.
