PATHOLOGY
The Pathology Department encompasses such subsections as autopsy,
surgical and forensic pathology, cytochemistry, histochemistry,
cytopathology, clinical biochemistry, hematology, coagulation,
clinical microscopy, microbiology, immunohematology, cytogenetics,
serology, immunology, radioisotopes, tissue typing, flow cytometry,
molecular pathology and electron microscopy. All of these branches
of the department work in conjunction with obstetricians and gynecologists
to provide state-of-the-art diagnostic procedures.
Residents are provided extensive experience in this area. Weekly
mandatory conferences relating to pathology are held by James L.
Breen, M.D., Caterina A. Gregori, M.D., Thad R. Denehy, M.D. In
addition, during the PGY-IV, the resident is assigned to pathology
for one month, where one afternoon each week is spent with a pathologist
processing slides from the operating room and reviewing gynecologic
pathology slides.
