| 2012 will mark the first time that the Association of Pathology Informatics (API) will present a companion conference at USCAP. The topic “Pathology Informatics: An Evolving Sub-Specialty with Direct Impact on the Continuum of Patient Care” was chosen by API Program Committee and Training and Education Committee because Pathology Informatics is the study of information, information systems and processes in pathology and as such impacts a wide range of activities in pathology diagnostics, operations, teaching and research. The goal of the symposium is to present a range of pathology informatics sub-specialties (automation, imaging, patient safety, information management) in the context of the clinical practice of anatomic, clinical and molecular pathology so that attendees can understand and apply these approaches in their practices. Part of the session will be dedicated to pathology informatics training including approaches to residency training in informatics, fellowship opportunities and the potential for ACGME certification of clinical informatics as sub-specialty. |
