Oakstone Clinical Update

This comprehensive CME review course covers the general diagnostic aspects involved in testing for microbial pathogens and recognizing the clinical aspects of infection with microbial agents. Ideal for MOC.

Stay Current in Clinical Microbiology

This comprehensive CME course provides a review of the major pathogens associated with human infections. It also includes the bonus lecture “New Technologies in Microbiology.” Pathology residents, microbiology fellows, and practicing pathologists will benefit from up-to-date knowledge presented in an organ systems format and dedicated to the most clinically important bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic agents. Clinical Microbiology will help you:

• Describe specimens submitted for the isolation of microbial pathogens
• Become familiar with various human infection organisms
• Discuss laboratory methods used for microbial identification
• Describe diagnostic approaches used in clinical microbiology

Discover New Guidelines

A clinically based update, this learn-at-your-own-pace course in the clinical practice of microbiology provides a maximum of 14.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits ™. Available online or via DVD, it provides access to unbiased, evidence-based content and case-based reviews so you may expand your knowledge and incorporate the latest guidelines into your daily practice. This activity meets the American Board of Pathology’s Maintenance of Certification (MOC) requirements for Part II (CME and SAMs) Lifelong Learning and self assessment.
