| Pathologists need strategies to solve key differential diagnostic problems that currently exist in a variety of anatomic sites. This symposia will attempt to demonstrate how advances in the understanding of pathogenesis can be applied to surgical pathology practice. Leading pathologists will focus upon 2-3 sets of morphologically similar entities, describing applications of new technologies and scientific insights to the diagnostic resolution of these processes. |
