How Ovarian Cancer Protocols Benefit Pathologists & Patients - a podcast by CAP

It’s September, Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. It’s also a good opportunity to highlight the important role that Cancer Protocols play in patient care. The CAP Cancer Protocols help ensure that all pathology reports contain necessary data elements to improve patient care. By requiring those specific data elements, synoptic reporting ensures more accurate reports that communicate findings in a clear, standardized format to clinician colleagues, researchers, and other users of the data, explain Barbara Crothers, MD, FCAP, and Uma Krishnamurti, MD, FCAP, in this CAPcast interview. In this episode, both pathologists will discuss how these Cancer Reporting Protocols benefit thousands of CAP member pathologists and other medical professionals by ensuring complete, uniform reporting of malignant tumors.
