Graduate Medical Education

The Mount Sinai School of Medicine Consortium for Graduate Medical Education, consisting of 13 institutions located in New York and New Jersey, sponsors more than 140 residency programs in virtually every specialty of medicine, enrolling in the aggregate more than 2,000 house staff. Consortium educational activities provided to all house staff, regardless of home institution or specialty.

Program Overview

This ACGME-accredited program offers one-year comprehensive training in diagnostic cytopathology. The program emphasizes the achievement of competence in interpreting cytopathologic preparations. The cytology service evaluates approximately 38,500 cases per year, of which 7,300 are nongynecologic specimens that include about 2,300 fine needle aspirations.

The cytopathology fellow will become proficient in laboratory management, diagnostics, and the performance, assistance, and interpretation of fine needle aspirations. The fellow will play an active role in teaching residents, and the medical students rotating on the pathology service.

Considerable emphasis is placed on correlation between cytopathology and surgical pathologic diagnoses. The fellow is encouraged to participate in and complete a research project with the duration of the program.
