What is pathology recertification?

Pathology recertification is a process that ensures practicing pathologists maintain their knowledge and skills in the field. It typically involves passing examinations or completing continuing medical education (CME) requirements to demonstrate competency in the latest advancements and practices in pathology. This process helps ensure that pathologists provide high-quality care and adhere to evolving standards in medical diagnostics. Recertification is often required at regular intervals, typically every 10 years, by certifying bodies such as the American Board of Pathology.
