OVERVIEW
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. Harvard 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!
