Oakstone Cytopathology 2026 — every major reporting system, specimen by specimen
Oakstone Cytopathology 2026, part of the Masters of Pathology Series released on 15 January 2026, brings 43 short lectures and 2 PDFs (8.41 GB) aimed at pathologists who sign out cytology without formal fellowship training. Faculty including Christopher VandenBussche, Peter Illei, Vickie Jo and Martha Pitman teach by specimen type, pairing the newest editions of Bethesda, Milan, Paris, Yokohama and the WHO systems with the molecular and immunohistochemical tests that now decide many small-sample diagnoses.

What you’ll be able to do
- Apply the changes in the third edition of Bethesda thyroid reporting
- Use the Paris System categories correctly on urine specimens
- Know when a salivary aspirate qualifies as SUMP under Milan
- Order the right ancillary tests on new NSCLC lung samples
- Read common bone and soft tissue tumours on fine needle aspiration
- Compare HPV testing methods and current screening guidance
Inside the course
Head, neck and thyroid
Bethesda third edition, thyroid molecular testing, two cytomorphology lectures and teaching cases lead into the Milan salivary system and lateral neck aspirates.
Abdomen, chest and fluids
Liver and pancreatic sessions follow the WHO pancreaticobiliary system through solid lesions and cysts; four lung talks and four serous cavity talks handle NSCLC, pleural effusions and pelvic washings.
Oakstone Cytopathology 2026 across the remaining organs
Bone and soft tissue, kidney, breast (Yokohama) and a four-part urine block precede gynaecological cytology, from HPV biology and ASCCP guidelines to Pap morphology.
Unusual specimens
CSF and vitreous fluid, lymph node small biopsies and a miscellaneous FNA challenge session complete the set.
Built for
- General surgical pathologistsEspecially those covering cytology without dedicated fellowship training.
- CytopathologistsA concise update on the latest reporting system editions.
- Residents and cytotechnologistsSpecimen-by-specimen revision with plenty of instructive cases.
