    Geriatric Medicine and why we need Geriatricians! by Juergen H. A. Bludau, MD hat is geriatric medicine? Why is there a need for 1. Heterogeneity: As people age, they become more Wthis specialty? How does it differ from general heterogeneous, meaning that they become more and more internal medicine? What do geriatricians do differently when different, sometimes strikingly so, with respect to their they evaluate and treat an older adult? These are common health and medical needs. Imagine for a moment a group questions among patients and physicians alike. Many of 10 men and women, all 40 years old. It is probably safe internists and family practitioners argue, not unjustifiably, to say that most, if not all, have no chronic diseases, do not that they have experience in treating and caring for older see their physicians on a regular basis, and take no long- patients, especially since older adults make up almost half of term prescription medications. From a medical point of all doctors visits. So do we really need another type of view, this means that they are all very similar. Compare this physician to care for older adults? It is true that geriatricians to a group of 10 patients who are 80 years old. Most likely, may not necessarily treat older patients differently per se. But you will find an amazingly fit and active gentleman who there is a very large and important difference in that the focus may not be taking any prescription medications. On the of the treatment is different. In order to appreciate how other end of the spectrum, you may find a frail, memory- significant this is, we need to look at what makes an older impaired, and wheelchair-bound woman who lives in a adult different from a younger patient.

  • DUKE UNIVERSITY School of Medicine Pathologists' Assistant
    DUKE UNIVERSITY School of Medicine Pathologists’ Assistant Program Department of Pathology Academic Programs The Department of Pathology at Duke University offers a wide array of training programs to fit individual requirements and goals. The Residency Training program is an ACGME approved program and is available as an Anatomic Pathology/Clinical Pathology combined program, a shorter Anatomic Pathology only program, or an Anatomic Pathology/Neuropathology program. Subspecialty fellowships in Cytopathology, Dermatopathology, Hematopathology, Medical Microbiology, and Neuropathology are also ACGME approved. These programs provide the highest quality of graduate medical education by drawing on the depth and breadth of faculty expertise in the Department in all aspects of anatomic and clinical pathology and the availability of a wide variety of often complex clinical cases seen at Duke University Health System. For medical students interested in a career in Pathology pre-doctoral fellowships, internships and externships are available. Research Training in Experimental pathology can be obtained through Pre- and postdoctoral fellowships of one to five years. All pre-doctoral fellows are candidates for the Ph.D. degree in pathology. The Ph.D. is optional in postdoctoral programs, which provide didactic and research training in various aspects of modern experimental pathology. A two year NAACLS accredited Pathologists’ Assistant Program leads to a Master of Health Science degree, certifies graduates to sit for the ASCP Board of Certification examination, and leads to exciting career opportunities in a variety of anatomic pathology laboratory settings. Pathologists’ assistants are analogous to physician assistants, but with highly specialized training in autopsy and surgical pathology. This profession was pioneered in the Duke Department of Pathology 50 years ago, and is one of only twelve such programs in existence today.

  • Understanding Your Pathology Report: Benign Breast Conditions
    cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 Understanding Your Pathology Report: Benign Breast Conditions When your breast was biopsied, the samples taken were studied under the microscope by a specialized doctor with many years of training called a pathologist. The pathologist sends your doctor a report that gives a diagnosis for each sample taken. Information in this report will be used to help manage your care. The questions and answers that follow are meant to help you understand medical language you might find in the pathology report from a breast biopsy1, such as a needle biopsy or an excision biopsy. In a needle biopsy, a hollow needle is used to remove a sample of an abnormal area. An excision biopsy removes the entire abnormal area, often with some of the surrounding normal tissue. An excision biopsy is much like a type of breast-conserving surgery2 called a lumpectomy. What does it mean if my report uses any of the following terms: adenosis, sclerosing adenosis, apocrine metaplasia, cysts, columnar cell change, columnar cell hyperplasia, collagenous spherulosis, duct ectasia, columnar alteration with prominent apical snouts and secretions (CAPSS), papillomatosis, or fibrocystic changes? All of these are terms that describe benign (non-cancerous) changes that the pathologist might see under the microscope. They do not need to be treated. They are of no concern when found along with cancer. More information about many of these can be found in Non-Cancerous Breast Conditions3. What does it mean if my report says fat necrosis? Fat necrosis is a benign condition that is not linked to cancer risk.

Lemire, CT (ASCP) Rotation Periods: 12 weeks for CORE Rotation broken into three 4 week rotations (a portion of the 12 weeks may be on the VA Hospital Cytology Rotation). Offered all 12 months of any training year. I. General Organization: The cytopathology core rotation consists of three 4 week rotations (total 12 weeks) routinely placed within the 1st thru 4th PGY training years of a 4 year APCP training program. The CORE rotation may also be done in one combined 12 week rotation upon special request. Cervical biopsies and local gynecologic excisions are signed out in tandem with cytology specimens (correlation of surgical and cytologic specimens). The first 4 week's rotation, residents review the day's cases at the time of sign-out with the faculty member on service. During the second and third 4 week rotations residents preview cases before sign-out, render preliminary interpretations, and receive feedback at sign out (graduated responsibility). Fellows preview the slides before sign-out and render interpretations, and have the option to attend sign-out or receive feedback from the attending pathologist later (graduated responsibility).
