Immunopathology?

I believe that the definition of "Immunopathology" given on this page is innaccurate. "Immunopathology", as defined by the source listed on the page ("Immunopathology of the Skin") is the use of immunohistochemical stains in surgical pathology, not the study of immune disorders. My understanding is that IPOX is now generally considered a tool of all surgical pathologists rather than a subspecialty in its own right. -Rustavo^{Talk/Contribs} 23:17, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

The current definition, as revised by Lissachome 17 October 07, has been in common use for at least a decade. When I was chatting with Nobel Laureate Rolf Zinkernagel last year at Karolinska, he admonished me for not using "Immunopathology" in this context. A hyperlink to the Medline definition cited by Lissachome would nevertheless firm up Lissachome's changes. Trevmar 00:57, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Immunopathology in cancer

The cancer section seems to just describe how the immune system relates to cancer, and does not really talk about immunopathology per se. "Immunopathology" in cancer usually describes the adverse immune response that can happen when tumors are destroyed, especially by immunotherapies, and release their PAMP/DAMP activating contents into the bloodstream. 132.183.13.137 (talk) 18:06, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
