Pathology and Probabilities

Abstract
Pathologists typically analyze biopsy specimens and report their opinions in a qualitative fashion. Clinical information, often fragmentary in character, is implicitly linked with the histologic findings, and interpretations are couched in ambiguous language: "consistent with," "highly suggestive of," "may represent," or "cannot exclude." Only pathognomonic or normal findings are reported in an unequivocal fashion.
