On Thursday, May 16th, 2024 the International Society for Laboratory Hematology will host the second webinar in the 2024 e-Learning series: "Molecular Characterization of Myeloid Neoplasms".
The webinar will be held by Olga Weinberg, MD, Professor of Pathology UT Southwestern Medical Center.
Overview
Hematological malignancies are a heterogeneous group of diseases with diverse presentations and incidence. Major advances in molecular and cell biology have improved our understanding of the pathophysiology of myeloid neoplasms, expanded treatment options, and provided a deeper understanding of how and why individual patients may be at increased risk for development of hematologic malignancies.
The recent accumulation of genetic data on the molecular underpinnings of myeloid neoplasms as well as numerous recently approved novel therapies have highlighted areas of controversy in how we currently define and classify myeloid malignancies.
Pathologic examination of bone marrow is the definitive diagnostic procedure for hematopoietic disorders, both benign and malignant. For many patients, it is the final step in identifying previously elusive disorders.
This talk will focus on presentation and areas of diagnostic confusion among myeloid malignancies.
Learning Objectives:
- Provide overview of myeloid malignancies and clinical diagnosis
- Cover recent genetic findings in myeloid neoplasms with phenotypic correlationsDiscuss controversial areas in myeloid neoplasms diagnosis
All webinars will begin promptly at 11:00 AM Eastern Time US (17:00 CET) and are approximately 50 minutes long. There is no charge to participate in the live webinar.
We look forward to your participation in this event!
