Overview

Pathology CME: Mastering Diagnosis of Neoplastic and Non-neoplastic Disorders

Dermatopathology: Masters of Pathology Series covers a large variety of topics related to both neoplastic and inflammatory dermatopathology. Presenters emphasize practical issues and diagnostic challenges, as well as new and emerging entities. Lectures in this online CME course are heavily illustrated, featuring thorough discussions of the diagnostic criteria, work-up, and differential diagnosis of challenging cases.

 

Through informative microscopy sessions and practical discussions, this dermatopathology continuing medical education program will reinforce your fundamental clinical knowledge and help you to:
  • Render difficult diagnoses with more confidence
  • Gain familiarity with ancillary tests
  • Identify pitfalls, including the lack of relevant clinical information and sampling errors
  • Recognize the broad morphologic spectrum of both inflammatory and neoplastic disorders
