Assessing ROSE for Adequacy of EBUS-TBNA Compared with a Direct-to-cell Block Approach as a Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic
The eJournal is an online pathology journal club that reviews current articles from a peer-reviewed cytopathology Journal.
Participants will be able to review the journal article, commentary and webinar from the contributing author. This is a great self-assessment, teaching and continuing education tool.
Target Audience
This educational activity is designed for pathologists, cytopathologists, cytotechnologists, students and other members of the cytopathology community.
Learning Objectives
- To determine whether removing ROSE affected the adequacy of the samples obtained from the EBUS-TBNA procedures and the quality of care provided by cytopathology
- To analyze if a direct-to-cell block approach could be used in the cytopathology service to provide the standard of care to patients
- To mitigate any challenges due to effects of removing ROSE for EBUS-TBNA
