USCAP Out with the Old and In with the New: An Updated Approach to the Cytologic Classification of Tumors 2023
Multiple revisions and updates have recently been created for standardization of the cytologic classification of non-neoplastic and neoplastic processes in the pancreatobiliary tract, liver, thyroid, head and neck (including salivary gland), urine, kidneys, adrenal gland, lung and soft tissue. These standardized reporting schemes provide a framework for consistent categorization of cytopathology reports. They allow cytopathologists to convey clear, consistent diagnostic information, in language uniformly understood by pathologists and clinicians the world over. New developments in the diagnosis, grading and staging are not fully appreciated in the community, often leading to errors in diagnosis and impaired management. This case-based course will illustrate daily challenges, new guidelines, and practical clues to the proper handling of specimens from these sites along with accurate cytologic diagnosis of neoplasms in, and their distinction from, key cytomorphologic mimics. This will offer pathologists a unique perspective into the diagnostic morphometric signatures of key entities, which they can apply to daily practice even in the smaller hospital or private practice setting.
Are you a cytopathologist or a general surgical pathologist with an interest in cytology? Are you looking to enhance your knowledge in the cytologic classification of neoplasms from various sites? If so, then we have the perfect course for you!
Introducing our latest course titled “Advancements in Cytopathology: Standardized Reporting and Diagnosis” which offers comprehensive training in the latest developments and guidelines in the field of cytopathology.
With multiple revisions and updates in the cytologic classification of non-neoplastic and neoplastic processes in the pancreatobiliary tract, liver, thyroid, head and neck, urine, kidneys, adrenal gland, lung, and soft tissue, it is crucial for cytopathologists to stay up-to-date. This course provides a framework for consistent categorization of cytopathology reports, ensuring clear and accurate diagnostic information is conveyed to pathologists and clinicians worldwide.
One of the main challenges faced by cytopathologists is the lack of awareness about new developments in diagnosis, grading, and staging. This often leads to errors in diagnosis and impaired management. Our case-based course aims to bridge this gap by illustrating daily challenges, new guidelines, and practical clues for proper handling of specimens from these sites. It also focuses on accurate cytologic diagnosis of neoplasms and their distinction from key cytomorphologic mimics.
What sets this course apart is its unique approach of providing pathologists with a perspective into the diagnostic morphometric signatures of key entities. This perspective can be applied to daily practice, even in smaller hospitals or private practice settings. By attending this course, you will gain valuable insights that will enhance your diagnostic capabilities.
