Breast diagnosis brought up to date: USCAP Modern Breast Pathology from the ISBP, 2026 edition
Built jointly by USCAP and the International Society of Breast Pathology, USCAP Modern Breast Pathology: Practical Updates from the International Society of Breast Pathology (ISBP) 2026 offers a case-rich tour of benign, borderline and malignant breast disease. Its faculty explain what the new WHO tumour book changes, how biomarker guidance has shifted, and which look-alike lesions most often trip up a confident reader. The April 2026 release runs to 19 recordings supported by 26 PDF handouts.

What you’ll be able to do
- Translate the new WHO breast tumour classification into daily reporting
- Name special-type and lobular carcinomas with current criteria
- Separate atypical intraductal proliferations and fibroepithelial lesions reliably
- Deploy immunohistochemistry only where it changes the answer
- Explain how biomarker results shape surgical and oncological plans
Inside the course
What the WHO 6th edition changed
The course begins with the classification update and then revisits special-type and lobular tumours in light of it.
Look-alikes and borderline lesions
Intraductal, papillary, small glandular, spindle cell and fibroepithelial proliferations are revisited with the pitfalls highlighted, frequently in a talk followed by a separate case review.
USCAP Modern Breast Pathology and the clinic
Talks on biomarker testing, targeted stains and neoadjuvant response link the diagnosis to what the treating team does next, and panel discussions close the programme.
Built for
- Practising pathologistsAcademic or community readers of breast biopsies who want international consensus in one place.
- Residents and fellowsA focused breast block to complement general training.
- Researchers and academic facultyA current snapshot of classification and biomarker thinking.
