Rotation Philosophy and General Purpose Statement:
The cytopathology rotation at West Virginia University is designed to instruct trainees in cytology in a tertiary care, academic setting and a large community hospital. As they evaluate patient specimens, physicians in training are instructed in acquisition and preparation of cytologic specimens, diagnostic evaluation, and ancillary studies. By providing residents with increasing responsibilities and duties, as their level of training increases, the teaching faculty hope to instill in the resident the skills and tools necessary to develop a life-long course of continued professional development.
