About the Course

Practical diagnostic strategies across gastrointestinal, pancreatic and liver pathology.

The program emphasizes systematic interpretation of biopsy and resection specimens with appropriate use of immunohistochemistry, molecular pathology and other ancillary techniques.

Gastrointestinal, Liver, and Pancreatic Pathology 2026 provides a concise but comprehensive review of common and challenging diagnostic problems encountered in daily pathology practice.

The curriculum covers inflammatory, pre-neoplastic and neoplastic conditions of the upper and lower GI tract, mesenchymal and lymphoid tumors, pancreaticobiliary lesions, and major patterns encountered in liver biopsy interpretation.

Special attention is given to new entities, recent classification updates, molecular biomarkers, hereditary cancer screening, targeted-therapy markers, staging and grading, and case-based diagnostic reasoning.

Why pathologists choose this program

Systematic biopsy and resection interpretation

New entities and updated tumor classification

Molecular diagnostics and clinically relevant biomarkers

GI, pancreaticobiliary and liver slide-based cases

Practical differential-diagnosis frameworks

Ancillary testing without overuse

Core Learning Areas

Four diagnostic domains that cover the full digestive-system pathology spectrum.

From inflammatory GI biopsies to hepatocellular carcinoma and pancreatic neoplasia, the course is built around high-yield everyday diagnostic decisions.

Gastrointestinal Pathology

Barrett’s esophagus, upper-GI inflammation, gastric precursor lesions, celiac disease, colitis, IBD, colon polyps, anal pathology and colon-cancer staging.

TMR

GI Tumors & Molecular Testing

GIST, mesenchymal tumors, GI lymphomas, appendiceal tumors, endocrine tumors, molecular diagnostics, biomarkers and targeted-testing strategies.

Pancreatic & Biliary Pathology

Pancreaticobiliary cytology, small biopsies, pancreatic tumor surgical pathology, instructive pancreas cases, gallbladder and biliary-tract pathology.

LIV

Liver Pathology

Acute hepatitis, porto-sinusoidal vascular disease, autoimmune hepatitis, cholestatic disorders, clinical integration of liver biopsies and hepatocellular carcinoma.
