Join us for an informative course designed to thoroughly explore the pathological diagnosis and clinical implications of various breast lesions found in surgical specimens and core needle biopsies. This course places a strong emphasis on the latest adjunctive immunohistochemical and molecular techniques that aid in diagnosing and categorizing both benign and malignant breast lesions, as well as guiding patient care. Through a blend of engaging lectures, interactive microscopy sessions, and panel Q&A discussions, participants will gain valuable insights into this dynamic field.
Key Learning Objectives:
Comprehensive Knowledge: Acquire a deep understanding of the diagnostic criteria and clinical significance associated with a diverse range of benign, in situ, and malignant breast lesions commonly encountered in surgical specimens and core needle biopsies.
Expert Differential Diagnosis: Engage in insightful discussions surrounding common diagnostic challenges in breast pathology. Grasp the potential and limitations of supplementary immunohistochemical and molecular tests in achieving precise diagnoses.
Proficiency in Patient Management: Explore prognostic and predictive assays relevant to individuals with breast cancer. Develop the skills needed to interpret these assays effectively, playing a pivotal role in shaping treatment strategies.
Why Attend:
This educational course is an essential platform for clinicians, pathologists, and researchers aiming to expand their knowledge of contemporary breast pathology issues. By integrating cutting-edge insights and practical methodologies, participants will be equipped to address diagnostic uncertainties and provide optimal patient care.
