Gastropathology

Overview

Discover New Guidelines with Pathology CME

Gastropathology is an online CME course that combines traditional lectures and microscopy sessions to review recent concepts in esophagitis, gastritis, and dysplasia, as well as discussions of the small intestine, colon, and anus.

In addition to discussions on difficult and rapidly evolving areas in pathology, sessions in this continuing medical education program — part of our Masters of Pathology Series — address topics that will help you:

• Understand liver neoplasms and medical liver
• Define gastrointestinal and liver mesenchymal tumors
• Assess inflammatory esophagus biopsies, especially those with lymphocytosis
• Evaluate hepatic adenomas
• Recognize clues for separating reactive and neoplastic changes in esophageal and gastric samples
• And more…
