The program is committed to change and innovation, through education, service and research, to bring the highest quality science into health care.

Pathology is a central referral hub as a result of the Academic nature of our program supported by the relationship with McMaster University (Pathology and Molecular Medicine Program within the Faculty of Health Sciences).

You will review, analyze, and synthesize all clinical information on a patient including radiology, ultrasound, and MRI, to best select tissues for microscopic analysis, special staining, and immunohistochemistry. Your work plays a key role in directing the treatment, management and prognosis for every patient whose tissue is resected.

  • Recognition of normal and abnormal gross findings and their relationship to pathologic states
  • Understanding CAP cancer staging objectives and their impact on patient treatments
  • Utilizing CAP cancer staging objectives to create standard procedures for sampling and dictation of gross surgical findings

  • Preparing and performing complex and/or simple surgical specimen dissection
  • Describing gross anatomic features
  • Obtaining pertinent clinical information and studies and applying the acquired information to judgments made during the dissection
