About the Course
This course will integrate didactic lectures with a microscopic session that incorporates histopathology, immunohistochemistry, as well as results of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and clonality analysis by PCR. Since techniques like immunohistochemistry and interphase FISH are almost indispensable in the practice of lymphoma pathology, a hands-on wet workshop is included. There will be ample opportunities to review and discuss with the faculty a wide range of cases drawn from our archives. Lecture handouts and DVDs of cases will also be distributed to participants. This course will focus on aggressive B-cell neoplasms and Hodgkin lymphoma. Read more about the programme and speakers' details.
