Course Audience: pathologist
Overview:
Convenient, Comprehensive Online CME
Breast Pathology — from Oakstone CME’s Masters of Pathology Series — outlines best practices for specimen handling and reporting, defined diagnostic criteria, improved recognition of less common diagnostic entities, and accurate interpretation of ancillary studies by using both routine microscopic examination and immunohistochemistry.
Directed by Laura C. Collins, MD, this breast pathology continuing medical education will help define the role of newer adjunctive molecular tests and will also help you to better:
- Classify proliferative breast, in situ, papillary, fibroepithelial, spindle cell, and vascular lesions
- Make the distinction between invasive and in situ lesions
- Identify a variety of uncommon benign and malignant lesions
- Understand guidelines for reporting prognostic and predictive factors
Date of Original Release: March 1, 2023
Date Credits Expire: February 28, 2026
CME credit is awarded upon successful completion of a course evaluation and post-test.
This activity meets the American Board of Pathology’s (ABPath) Continuing Certification program requirements for Part II (CME) Lifelong Learning.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this CME activity, the participant will be able to:
- Evaluate diagnostic criteria and clinical significance of various common and uncommon benign, in situ, and malignant lesions of the breast in both core needle biopsy specimens and surgical excision specimens
- Describe differential diagnostic problems commonly encountered in breast pathology and develop strategies to resolve them in the practice environment
- Utilize the latest information on the uses and limitations of immunohistochemistry in resolving diagnostic problems in breast pathology
- Understand the updated guidelines for ER, PR, and HER2 testing and reporting
- Understand the applications of molecular testing in breast cancer
Intended Audience
This educational activity was designed for practicing pathologists, pathology assistants, and residents.
