Overview

Molecular diagnostics is one of the most dynamic and transformative areas in health care. Our ability to properly and successfully utilize this information in routine clinical practice relies on familiarity with the technology, the factors that impact test performance and specific interpretation of results in the context of all available clinicopathologic information.

This course, created and released directly to on demand only, features a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of molecular diagnostics as it applies to the diagnosis and risk management and monitoring of patients with solid tumors and hematologic neoplasms. Through a case-based approach, participants will also learn about current and evolving clinically relevant biomarkers, the importance of proper test utilization, specimen handling and interpretation of results in the context of the clinical and pathologic presentation.

Access to this course includes over 30, 30 minute lectures, on topics in four categories, Basic Methods, Solid Tumors, Hematologic Malignancies and Advanced Topics, plus PDFs of the speaker presentations. A complete list of talk titles can be found here.
