Morphology

anatomopathological = pathological (semi-transparent) = anatomo + pathological

The meaning is the combination of anatomy + pathology and is clear in technical contexts, but the medical combining form 'anatomo-' may be unfamiliar to general learners.

Etymology

The word anatomopathological combines anatomy ('study of the body's parts') and pathology ('study of disease'). So it describes work that looks at how diseases change body tissues.
