Foundation in Soft Tissue Tumors

This comprehensive course aims to provide learners with a deep understanding of the basic histology of soft tissues, the evolution of neoplasms, and the techniques used to classify and diagnose these tumors. Through an in-depth exploration of both benign and malignant soft tissue lesions, we will unravel their intricate biological behaviors, diagnostic methodologies, and molecular underpinnings.
