Mortuaries

Regular Off Off

The department manages the mortuary facility located in the Brunel Building at Southmead Hospital and the Paediatric/Perinatal mortuary in St Michael’s Hospital.  Since April 2009, when the Bristol City Council/Coroner’s mortuary opened at Flax Bourton the adult service in Southmead Hospital is limited to storage and management of the deceased and the facilitation of viewings.  Requests for autopsies on adult and neonatal deaths may be made through the appropriate mortuary (Southmead 0117  4141700, St Michael's 0117 3425428).  Tissues from autopsies requiring histological examination are sent to the Cellular Pathology Department at NBT for processing.

What is Cellular Pathology?

Regular Off Off

Cellular pathology is the study of disease in organs, tissues and cells. Histopathology and cytopathology are key diagnostic tests in the initial detection and diagnosis of cancer and other diseases supported by modern molecular techniques. Consultant cellular pathologists are able to provide information on prognosis and help to appropriately direct therapies in post diagnostic treatment.

The cervical cytology screening program detects latent disease in well women and plays an important part in cancer prevention.

If you have any questions about the tests, please visit Lab Tests Online-UK, a patient-centred website written by practicing laboratory doctors and scientists to help members of the public understand the many clinical laboratory tests that are used in the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of disease.
