Educational Symposia
At the completion of this teaching activity, you should be able to:
- Utilize cytopathology and histopathology to resolve the most common diagnostic issues in salivary gland pathology.
- Discuss the emerging role of molecular diagnostics when used to diagnose salivary gland pathology.
- Summarize the immunohistochemical biomarkers in surgical neuropathology.
- Differentiate squamous lesions from their mimics.
- Discuss diagnostic strategies and treatment implications for HPV-associated tumors of the head and neck.
- Recognize key diagnostic features that define common follicular patterned thyroid neoplasms.
The DocmedED 2024 Classic Lectures in Pathology: What You Need to Know – Head and Neck Endocrine Pathology is best for practicing pathologists, pathology fellows, and trainees who want a concise, expert‑led update on thyroid, parathyroid, and other endocrine lesions of the head and neck.
👩⚕️ Who Should Take This Course
- Practicing surgical pathologists who routinely sign out thyroid, parathyroid, and salivary gland specimens and want a refresher on diagnostic pitfalls.
- Pathology fellows and residents preparing for board exams or subspecialty training in endocrine or head & neck pathology.
- Academic pathologists and educators seeking structured, high‑yield teaching material for trainees.
- Oncologists and endocrine surgeons (as secondary audience) who want better understanding of pathology reports and diagnostic nuances.
📚 What You’ll Learn
- Diagnostic criteria and updates for thyroid carcinomas, parathyroid lesions, and rare endocrine tumors of the head and neck.
- Histologic patterns and differential diagnoses that commonly cause confusion in routine practice.
- Use of immunohistochemistry and molecular testing in endocrine pathology.
- Case‑based teaching pearls from expert faculty, emphasizing “what you need to know” for accurate diagnosis and reporting.
