State-of-the-Art Diagnostic Pathology CME

You’ll gain knowledge, confidence, and experience through this unique series of online video CME lectures highlighting the integration of small biopsies, a common component of the typical FNAB procedure. Expert faculty from Harvard Medical School’s three academic centers — many of whom are leaders in the field — deliver a comprehensive tutorial on the current state of the art in cytology. Advances in Cytology and Small Biopsies continuing medical education topics including:

  • Advances in automation and standardized terminology
  • “Challenging Cases and Lessons Learned” case-based virtual microscopy sessions
  • Urinary cytopathology and changes to The Paris System 2.0 last updated in 2022
  • The role of the cytopathologist in diagnosis using minimally invasive techniques
  • Updates on utilizing ancillary testing for diagnosis, prognosis, and targeted therapy
  • And more!

* Date of Original Release: July 31, 2023

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to:

  • Recognize the full range of diagnostic approaches to cytological and small tissue samples from all body sites
  • Evaluate current and potential applications of automated screening, liquid-based preparation methods, flow cytometry and molecular testing
  • Assess the impact of new technologies on cytology practice
  • Apply current standards for the evaluation and work-up of cytology and small tissue samples for diagnosis, prognosis and targeted therapy
  • Summarize the new standardized terminology and reporting systems for gynecological, pancreaticobiliary, thyroid, salivary gland and urinary cytological specimens
  • Identify diagnostic pitfalls and how to avoid them
