This educational activity is based on case presentations and subsequent small group discussions of patients with hematologic malignancies that are being evaluated, treated and followed in the Department of Hematology and Oncology, and that have diagnostic or follow-up material evaluated in the Division of Hematopathology. The goal of this multimodality approach is to ensure that the best patient care is being delivered by both Hematologists/Oncologists and Pathologists.
Key Words: CME, MCW, Pathology, Clinical Pathology, Molecular Pathology, Hematologic Neoplasms, Hematologic Tests, Hematologic Diseases, Morphological and Microscopic Findings, Diagnostic Techniques and Procedures, Clinical Laboratory Techniques, Hemic and Immune Systems, Differential Diagnosis, Pathological Processes, Neoplastic Cell Transformation
Learning objectives are identified for Hematologists/Oncologists and Hematopathologists.
Participants who engage in this educational intervention will be able to:
