What are the Common Histopathological Findings in Toxicology?
Common findings include cellular necrosis, apoptosis, inflammation, fibrosis, and hyperplasia. Each of these changes can be indicative of specific types of toxic injury. For example, necrosis often suggests severe acute toxicity, while fibrosis is typically associated with chronic exposure and tissue repair processes. Hyperplasia may indicate a compensatory response to injury or be a precursor to neoplastic changes.
