Anatomic Pathology
Breast Pathology
Breast Pathology is a subspecialty of Surgical Pathology that focuses
primarily upon the diagnosis of benign and malignant breast conditions
and the assessment of prognostic and predictive biomarkers in breast
cancer. The breast pathologists actively participate in weekly Breast
Tumour conferences in the regional cancer centre as well as the Breast
Assessment Program at the Hotel Dieu Hospital and work as part of a
multidisciplinary team in the provision of accurate, timely breast
pathology reports. A busy local and regional diagnostic consultation
practice complements an academic focus on translational research in the
area of breast cancer novel biomarker identification and
technical-clinical validation.
