Topics were selected following in depth discussions between the executive board and the scientific program committee and involved results of member surveys and issues of concern in the day-to-day practice of surgical pathologists and cytopathologists. Topics were chosen to help participants effectively use cytology and cytologic methods in their day-to-day practice. The symposium is designed to update the practicing pathologist on cytologic methods useful as adjunctive techniques for surgical pathology as well as alternatives to standard surgical pathology techniques.
