Objectives
After this review, participants should be able to:
• Use the evidence-based information and practice tools presented to formulate differential diagnoses for most clinical scenarios better
• Effectively apply current practice guidelines published by CAP, ASCP, and other major medical and governmental agencies
• Recognize common patterns of test results and recommend additional tests, as needed, to characterize the etiology and prognosis of individual patient conditions
• Identify indications and contraindications for transfusion and problems that might arise to advise better-attending physicians
• Apply strategies for integrating molecular and genetic testing into routine clinical practice
• Describe the basic technique and pitfall avoidance of fine-needle aspiration biopsy performance
• Apply increased knowledge of pathology to achieve specialty board certifications
