A Journey through Diagnostically Challenging Areas in Gynecologic Pathology

A Journey through Diagnostically Challenging Areas in Gynecologic Pathology is organized by United States and Canadian Academy of Pathology (USCAP) and will be held from Sep 28 - 30, 2018 at USCAP West, Palm Springs, California, United States of America. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 16 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.

Course Description:
The World Health Organization (WHO) has incorporated new, significant developments in various areas of diagnostic gynecologic pathology into its 2014 WHO Classification of Tumours of Female Reproductive Organs. This publication serves as a systemic educational tool for practicing pathologists to adopt new disease classifications and related diagnostic criteria, a guide to clinical management of patients and a disease framework for further investigations. This course parallels and reflects WHO updates and encompasses a broad review of diagnostically challenging areas in gynecologic pathology through intimate mentoring sessions around multi-head microscopes for interactive learning and real-time interchanges focused on the diagnostic experience.

Course Objectives:
• Recognize new diagnostic criteria and disease classifications in gynecological pathology
• Apply morphologic and immuno-histochemical criteria for differential diagnoses
• Recognize uncommon/unusual gynecologic disease entities and their diagnostic criteria
• Learn the clinical implication when applying new diagnostic knowledge in gynecological pathology.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
