Myositis in man may be divided into infectious and non-infectious forms. The myopathologist more often deals with the latter forms which comprise dermatomyositis/polymyositis, inclusion body myositis, mixed connective tissue disease/collagenoses, and granulomatous myopathies. Modern morphological techniques as enzyme-histochemistry, electron microscopy, immunohistology, and morphometry are of different value in various forms of myositis, but are often indispensable techniques in up-to-date diagnostic work up of a myositis.
人类的肌炎可分为感染性和非感染性类型。肌病病理学家更多处理的是后一种类型，包括皮肌炎/多肌炎、包涵体肌炎、混合性结缔组织病/胶原病以及肉芽肿性肌病。现代形态学技术，如酶组织化学、电子显微镜、免疫组织学和形态测量学，在各种类型的肌炎中具有不同的价值，但在最新的肌炎诊断检查中往往是不可或缺的技术。
