Course Description
Join USCAP and the International Society of Breast Pathology (ISBP) for a comprehensive overview and update of the rapidly evolving field of breast pathology. The course will highlight the changes in the new WHO classification of breast tumors (6th Ed.), review the most current guidelines in biomarker testing to guide patient management, and cover diagnostic challenges of benign to malignant lesions with an emphasis on identifying histologic mimics.

Target Audience
Practicing academic and community pathologists, and pathologists-in-training

Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this educational activity, learners will be able to:

• Discuss diagnostic challenges in breast pathology and how to resolve difficult cases.
• Review recent updates on biomarker testing in breast cancer.
• Discuss the WHO Classifications updates.

The USCAP Modern Breast Pathology – Practical Updates from the International Society of Breast Pathology (ISBP) 2026 is best for pathologists, oncologists, and trainees who want authoritative, evidence‑based updates on breast pathology with direct application to diagnostic practice. It emphasizes integrating modern molecular insights, refining histopathologic criteria, and applying international consensus standards to improve patient outcomes.
