COURSE DESCRIPTION
Clinical management of neoplastic and non-neoplastic lung diseases has changed significantly in the past decade. Therefore, there is much greater pressure on the practicing pathologist not only to make the correct diagnosis, but also to guide therapeutic decisions and management of patients with lung diseases. This course will provide a detailed discussion on potentially difficult aspects of recent recommendations for the classification of chronic interstitial pneumonias, challenging areas of the upcoming WHO classification of lung and mesothelial tumors, and recently recognized biomarkers of response to immune check point inhibitors. An update on acute lung injury in the context of the recent E-cigarette/vaping outbreak and COVID pandemic will be provided. Upon completion of the course participants should be able to integrate histology, radiology, emerging molecular techniques and clinical information in the diagnosis of thoracic entities.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Update current knowledge on recent advances and practice guidelines in neoplastic and non-neoplastic diagnostic thoracic pathology
- Recognize key morphological features, mimickers, and ancillary studies that can help in making a specific and accurate diagnosis in thoracic pathology
- Integrate histology, ancillary techniques and clinical information in the diagnosis and management of difficult diagnostic areas of thoracic neoplastic and non-neoplastic pathology
TARGET AUDIENCE
- Practicing academic pathologists
- Practicing community pathologists
- Pathologists-in-Training
