Include: 15 videos 1 pdf, size: 16.7 GB

This online course offers an in-depth, case-based exploration of soft tissue pathology—from benign lesions and reactive mimics to high-grade sarcomas. Renowned faculty preview a wide range of real-world cases and provide practical strategies for navigating common diagnostic challenges.

Through the Cleveland Clinic Comprehensive and Immersive Soft Tissue Pathology continuing medical education course, you’ll develop skills and tools to triage and work up mesenchymal lesions while strengthening your use of immunohistochemistry, molecular tools, and radiologic studies in soft tissue tumor diagnosis. You’ll be better equipped to:

• Identify common and rare soft tissue tumors
• Recognize diagnostic pitfalls
• Develop a systematic diagnostic approach
• Integrate ancillary testing in clinical workflows
