Hello Eileen

Please see my answer in """What is a Biopsy""" in the Q&A section.

The tissue obtained by doing a biopsy is examined under a microscope. Histology is the study of cells - it describes the appearance of the cells, as seen by the pathologist under the microscope, and gives information about the normality/abnormality and type of cancer if present, and this has a bearing on the type of treatment advised.

Best wishes
