Molecular Testing of Cytology Specimens: Overview of Assay Selection with Focus on Lung, Salivary Gland, and Thyroid Testing

Course overview

The eJournal is an online pathology journal club that reviews current articles from a peer-reviewed cytopathology Journal. Participants will be able to review the journal article, commentary and webinar from the contributing author. This is a great self-assessment, teaching and continuing education tool. Target Audience This educational activity is designed for pathologists, cytopathologists, cytotechnologists, students and other members of the cytopathology community. Learning Objectives To evaluate the efficacy of ancillary testing in cytopathology To analyze the suitability of cytology specimens for various testing techniques To provide an overview of assay selection criteria To update on ancillary testing applications in specific tumor types Presenter(s): Lakshmi Harinath, MD John Grove, DO Vivian L.
