Anil,

The way pathologists classify themselves can vary from country to
country.  In Britain the vast majority of hospital based pathologists
would fall into one of four categories:

Histopathology/Cytopathology
Chemical Pathology
Haematology
Microbiology/Virology

The term Clinical Pathology is not often used in Britain though we do
have an Association of Clinical Pathologists which includes
pathologists from all these disciplines.
