Description
The activity features ten challenging cases with clinical histories, as well as a corresponding whole slide image. After you select a diagnosis, you will be presented with a case critique that includes the diagnosis, pertinent histological findings, a discussion of the differential diagnosis, and other significant clinical and/or biological information. After you review the case critique, you will be presented with three educational questions that pertain to the case and contain additional diagnostic information.
Objectives
After completing this activity, you should be able to:
- Recognize clinical and pathologic characteristics that facilitate accurate diagnosis of surgical pathology specimens, distinguishing them from mimics.
- Discuss important and relevant information (clinical and imaging findings, epidemiology, pathogenesis, prognosis, etc) pertaining to pathological diagnosis.
- Identify ancillary tests, including but not limited to special and immunohistochemical stains, genetic and molecular tests, that may help confirm diagnosis, determine prognosis, or predict therapeutic response for pathological diagnosis.
- Use the program as a benchmark for diagnostic performance and as a source of information for quality improvement.
