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
Learning Objectives
After viewing this program, the participant will be better able to:
- Discuss the significance of esophageal lymphocytosis
- Use diagnostic clues to separate reactive and dysplastic changes in columnar biopsies from the esophagus and stomach
- Describe the features of autoimmune hepatitis and its differential diagnosis
- Recognize the key types of gastritis
- Describe several types of gastric polyps
- Discuss non-neoplastic small intestinal pathology
- Define HPV-associated anal neoplasms
- Understand the classification of hepatic neoplasms
- Recognize key GI tract mesenchymal neoplasms
- Describe key features of appendiceal neoplasms
Intended Audience
This educational activity was designed for pathologists and gastroenterologists in practice, pathology residents, and gastroenterology fellows.
