"As you grow older, it becomes okay to say, “I don’t know.” People don’t like ambiguity when they are younger; they want everything in black and white. But many things about pathology (and life!) are ambiguous. There are always shades of grey." thepathologist.com/outside-the-la…

Annual reminder that 32° is better than 102° and I will die on this hill

We are saddened to hear of the recent passing of former ABPath Trustee William W. McLendon, MD. His legacy in Pathology, Laboratory Medicine and leadership will continue to inspire us. More on his life and contributions on the ABPath website: bit.ly/4cg9ajV.

We are delighted to announce the election of Dylan Miller, MD, to the ABPath Board of Trustees, effective January 1, 2025. Dr. Miller's extensive expertise and experience will be invaluable to the Board. Please join us in welcoming Dr. Miller! #pathology abpath.org/2024/08/abpath…

Single best description of AI I’ve ever read, from the great Ted Chiang.

If anyone else uses the LLM AI apps, I'm getting a bit frustrated with them. I asked it a simple question about a great 1990s movie and it had no idea what it was talking about g.co/gemini/share/8…

MRI target-only biopsy misses 15% of GG2-5 and 43% of GG4-5. Conclusion: I will continue to do targeted + systematic biopsies

Gallbladder, cholecystectomy:_______ No prior history of cancer. How would you sign this out? Which stains would you order? #GIpath #PathX #COTW #2for1

I'm thrilled to be able to share this report from the symposium CAncer or Not Cancer?: Evaluating and Reconsidering GG1 prostate cancer (CANCER-GG1?), out today JNCI When is prostate cancer really cancer? academic.oup.com/jnci/article/d…

🚨Excited to share publication of the G-MINOR trial today in European Urology. This cluster-crossover trial enrolled 338 patients at high risk of local recurrence post-RP and randomized them to +/- genomic testing (Decipher). G-MINOR Trial on genomic classifier testing (Decipher)🧬

Agree, no need for total submission. In our lab we routinely have partially submitted for years, and our rates of detecting T3 disease are probably higher than most. A good PA or grosser helps, as does correlation with bx/imaging. Low threshold to go back and submit more. #gupath

if you’re seeing PSA level “97.20 ng/ml” somewhere on pros bx path report, its likely wrong 97.20 is the ICD code for elevated PSA I’ve seen this error often! Mistake gets passed along patient chart! May not be a false neg bx that didn’t correlate! example here👇🏽

#GUpath prostate biopsy: controversies in applying volume of core involved: ❓95% of core involved by prostate cancer? 🆚 ❓15% of core, discontinuously involved there's data on both sides...so use your judgement and explain how you arrived at your reporting!

We are very excited to hear from our Pathology community to help refine these guidance documents for our residents and fellows.

Comments are helpful - there has been lots of discussion on what topics are appropriate for general AP/CP boards and what topics are "fellowship level" - please look through and comment (easy to do by means of a survey-type response that can be found at the link)
