Pathologists Are From Mars, Hepatologists Are From Venus: How to Decode Pathology Reports to Solve Hepatology Diagnostic Puzzles

Description

Correct interpretation of pathology reports and demystifying some liver pathology terms and concepts are the focus of this community conversation. The session utilizes educational cases—such as autoimmune hepatitis, overlap syndromes, and steatohepatitis with autoantibodies—as a platform to promote interactive discussions. Organizers intend an informal program that encourages attendee questions and comments. The session focuses not only on pathology but also on the utilization of pathology reports to facilitate diagnosis and further work-up. In addition to educational cases, the program includes some fun pictures/examples that illustrate the importance of clinicopathologic correlation in different clinical settings.
