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
