Current Topics in Gastrointestinal and Liver Pathology

The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine

Free Shipping when you order before February 29, 2012.

Current Topics in Gastrointestinal and Liver Pathology program is intended as a practical overview for pathologists who encounter gastrointestinal and liver specimens in daily practice. Interpretation of biopsies of the upper GI tract mucosa and the liver is addressed, as well as recent advances in pancreatic pathology. Case presentations are featured to emphasize presented concepts. Viewers should come away with a better understanding of interpretation of mucosal and liver biopsies, pancreatic pathology, current concepts in staging, and the application of modern techniques to gastrointestinal disorders.
