Renal Pathology – A Comprehensive Review 2015

The Oakstone Institute Specialty Review

• Improve your ability to interpret renal biopsies and stay current with the latest advances in native and
• transplant pathophysiology. Ideal for MOC.
• Improve Your Ability to Interpret Renal Biopsies
• Renal Pathology – A Comprehensive Review provides an overview of native and transplant kidney
• pathology with an emphasis on recognizing patterns of renal injury, formulating diagnoses, and
• implementing modern classification schema for both native and transplant kidney disease. It will help you to better:
• Recognize and identify disease processes in all compartments of the kidney
• Interpret histologic findings in both the native and allograft kidney biopsy
• Diagnose and classify kidney disease according to histologic findings
• Apply accepted schema for classifying native and transplant kidney disease
• Recognize alloimmune injury in the kidney transplant
