ALL NEW PROGRAM WITH ONLINE VIDEO STREAMING
Comprehensive review and update on key clinical topics.

 

Description

This activity will cover, in lecture format and case based discussion, major topics in Gynecologic Pathology with emphasis on recent developments in tumor diagnosis and classification and the use of ancillary diagnostic techniques. Participants will understand the basis of classification schemes and learn the use of various tools in arriving at the correct diagnosis.
Once the clinical problems are briefly presented, practitioners will be exposed to macroscopic, histopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular genetics features of various gynecological cancers in an integrated manner. Thus, they will acquire a broad and modern understanding of the disease, including its accurate histopathological diagnosis, factors influencing prognosis, and treatment.

 
 
Intended Audience

Pathologists and Gynecologists in training, in private practice, and junior faculty (both Pathologists and Gynecologic Oncologists) from academic centers wishing to update their knowledge in Gynecological Tumor Pathology.
