- Read current literature, talk with colleagues, or participate in professional organizations or conferences to keep abreast of developments in pathology.
- Testify in depositions or trials as an expert witness.
- Communicate pathologic findings to surgeons or other physicians.
- Obtain specimens by performing procedures such as biopsies and fine need aspirations (FNAs) of superficial nodules.
- Review cases by analyzing autopsies, laboratory findings, or case investigation reports.
- Perform autopsies to determine causes of deaths.
- Consult with physicians about ordering and interpreting tests or providing treatments.
- Manage medical laboratories.
