1 A one-year fellowship in cytopathology offers advanced training with emphasis on FNA biopsy and the selective application of ancillary techniques. Fellows receive increasing levels of responsibility commensurate with level of performance.
Fellows participate in the service, teaching and research activities of the cytology division.
With more than 1,000 FNA biopsies at Allegheny General Hospital annually, fellows assist and perform these biopsies and review all consultation cases. Fellows may participate in ongoing conferences, teaching and clinical research projects, as well as national teaching and workshops given by the cytology faculty. The fellow can also participate in the annual AGH cytology course.
