Expect the Unexpected: MEST Cases in the Male Reproductive Tract
One of the key qualities of expert pathologists is that they learn to expect the unexpected. In the Michigan Medicine Department of Pathology, our pathologists and collaborators recently reported on some of these unexpected findings.
Using Technology to Advance Patient Care and Safety
In decades past, people often lived lifelong within a narrow geographic region and received healthcare from one institution. Today, our population is highly mobile. Individuals may receive healthcare from locations across the United States and globally. This causes significant safety issues for patients who need blood transfusions, especially those who are unable to relay their medical history.
Re-envisioning a Modern Informatics Ecosystem
The paths to pathology are as varied as the members taking them. Sometimes, the path is very direct—the student knows exactly what they want to do from childhood. Other times, the path is non-linear, as is the case with Dr. Daniel Hovelson, director of informatics in the Division of Diagnostic Genetics and Genomics (DGG) in the University of Michigan's Department of Pathology.
