Standardizing Pathology Practices: To promote uniformity in the evaluation and reporting of liver and transplant pathology across centres.
Improving Clinicopathological Correlation: To strengthen communication between pathologists and transplant teams and improve the interpretation of pathology findings in clinical practice.
Education and Training: To improve awareness and understanding of transplant pathology among pathologists, transplant surgeons, hepatologists, and trainees.
Promoting Collaborative Research: To facilitate multicentric studies and collaborative projects in liver and transplant pathology.
Developing Guidelines: To contribute towards practical guidelines and recommendations for the diagnosis, reporting, and management of important pathological findings in liver transplantation.
Ongoing Programs and Activities:
Pathology-focused sessions at the annual and mid-term LTSI meetings.
Interactive case discussions covering challenging liver and transplant pathology cases.
Development of educational material including case-based modules, image libraries, and online teaching resources.
Collaborative multicentric research in liver and transplant pathology.
Consensus and guideline development on important areas of transplant pathology and pathological reporting.
