Is the difference in: Opinion clinically significant? Two pathologists, like any two people may have slightly different view of a given tissue. It is for your doctor to discuss the matter with both parties to see if the differences are just terminology/semantic or do the opinions differ enough to affect diagnosis and treatment. If latter, it would be good to consult a pathologist at a large academic center.
