Overview

This update in diagnostic surgical pathology, cytopathology/FNA and immunohistochemistry (IHC), with a format of didactic lecture and case-based presentation, will allow practicing anatomic pathologists to become proficient in the application of diagnostic IHC in different subspecialties and to recognize newly described entities in different organs and how to work up a diagnostic challenging case in both surgical and cytopathology/FNA specimens. The seminar, presented by six international experts (Drs. Joel Greenson, Victor Reuter, Brigette Ronnett, Martha Pitman, Laura Collins and Zubair Baloch) will address frequently asked questions that practicing pathologists encounter in day-to-day practice and help residents and fellows with their specialty board exam preparations.

Topics

Updates on GI, GU, GYN, breast and cytology/FNA

Audience

This seminar is intended primarily for practicing pathologists, fellows,
