- Abstract
Pathology is a basis science not only for theoretical and practical medicine but also for health service. Autopsies of the persons dying in the hospitals and outpatient departments would be the most valuable and objective indices of treatment quality during the period of transition to insurance medicine. The most efficient social functioning of pathology will be possible only if the pathology service is centralized. Under such conditions it is necessary to create the consulting centers for all pathology departments.
