There is increased utilization of cytopathology to provide a rapid onsite evaluation (ROSE) of fine needle aspiration and touch preparations of small biopsies. A well-executed ROSE procedure can positively impact the diagnostic quality and triage of procured biopsy materials. Telecytology has been increasingly implemented to facilitate ROSE occurring remotely. In this webinar, we will review technical and regulatory considerations to help you implement the most practical telecytology solution for your practice.

Target Audience

This educational activity is designed for pathologists, cytopathologists, cytotechnologists, students and other members of the cytopathology community.

Learning Objectives

  • Understand the technical solutions available for telecytology
