[Planning the pathological departments of modern large clinics].

With the increasing importance of pathomorphological research as an integral element of optimization of therapeutic-diagnostic service of a modern hospital, it is important to improve the structure and technical basis of the pathology departments.

This handicaps the improvement of the pathological service as an element of medical service and the subject of teaching.
