Gastropathology

Overview

Diagnostic Solutions: GI Tract Pathology CME

Masters of Pathology Series — Gastropathology is an online video CME program led by Elizabeth Montgomery, MD and Rhonda K. Yantiss, MD that combines traditional lectures with case-based microscopy sessions to deliver a condensed view of new conditions and diagnostic tips for old ones.

Designed to augment your knowledge of gastrointestinal tract pathology and illustrate diagnostic solutions, this continuing medical education course provides expert insights on:

• Normal and slightly abnormal findings
• Important lesions of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, and anus
• Recent concepts in staging colorectal neoplasms
• Gastrointestinal manifestations of systemic diseases
• Colorectal polyps, including common hematopoietic lesions affecting the GI tract
• GI mesenchymal lesions
• Polyposis syndromes (and when to consider them)
