The Future Role Of Cytologists Regarding Telecytology And Rapid On-Site Evaluation (Rose), A Meta-Narrative Review, James Jeffery Fretwell, Liam Patrick Farley, Melissa Perez, Mary Coolbaugh Murphy Phd, Denise Juroske Short Phd

Research Methods Poster Session 2024

The use of Telecytology in conjunction with rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) is currently at the forefront of discussion among cytologists and cytopathologists. In this meta-narrative review, the advancements of Telecytology and ROSE within the discipline of Cytology are discussed. Advancements in telecytology and ROSE enable off-site cytology slide evaluation and diagnosis through digital image transfer. ROSE allows for preliminary cytological assessment during image-guided biopsy procedures to determine specimen adequacy. The meta-narrative review concluded that the combination of these two technologies increases the efficacy of patient diagnosis without sacrificing the quality of patient care.

Meta-Narrative Synthesis: The Effectiveness Of Diagnosing And Treating Melanoma With Micrographically Oriented Histograph Surgery Mohs Technique, Gabriella Casas Ms, Nida Mubeen Ms, Nicole Rivera Ms, Tan Thien Tang Mr., Mark A. Bailey Mr, Mary Coolbaugh-Murphy Mrs., Denise M. Juroske Short Mrs

Research Methods Poster Session 2024

This meta-narrative synthesis highlights the effectiveness of diagnosing and treating melanoma with Micrographically Oriented Histography Surgery (MOHS) technique. Initiating the questions: What techniques does MOHS surgery involve when diagnosing and treating non-metastasized Melanoma? How will it provide positive outcomes for the patient? The significance of using MOHS excision technique and diagnosis of localized facial melanoma compared to traditional cancer excision techniques is designed to remove affected tissue while preserving anatomical facial structure in an aesthetic fashion. Providing an overview of the technique’s diagnostic professional capabilities as well as its strengths, limitations, improvement for upcoming studies, and potential prognosis. Melanoma, a …
