USCAP GI Pathology Tutorial 2023
The USCAP GI Pathology Tutorial 2023 listing brings together gastrointestinal biopsy interpretation, liver pathology and pancreatic disease topics for pathologists and trainees.
The listed curriculum reviews inflammatory and neoplastic conditions, with attention to morphology, immunohistochemistry and molecular testing. It is a historical educational resource, not a statement of current diagnostic guidelines.
- The original course combines lectures with case-based microscopy teaching. This store listing does not include live faculty interaction or a USCAP learning-platform account.
- Gastrointestinal pathology emerged as a subspecialty in the mid-to-late 1980s, coincident with utilization of endoscopy with mucosal biopsy for diagnosis and management of patients with gastrointestinal disorders. The widespread availability of endoscopy coupled with advances in tissue acquisition techniques have drastically increased the number and variety of gastrointestinal samples pathologists encounter in daily practice. As a result, pathologists are now required to provide comprehensive diagnostic information based on review of scant material.
Learning Topics
- Describe practice approaches to the diagnosis of inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders, with a focus on biopsy interpretation
- Discuss criteria to facilitate distinction between different causes of esophagitis and gastritis
- Evaluate biopsy samples from patients with malabsorptive symptoms
- Classify patterns of colitis and recognize medication-related injuries
- Recognize inflammatory and neoplastic conditions of the anus and appendix
- Discuss biopsy interpretation of the liver
- Discuss diagnostic criteria for pancreatic pathology
