Gastrointestinal, Liver, and Pancreas Pathology
At Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, we offer comprehensive diagnostic services to facilitate the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal, liver, and pancreas diseases and tumors.
Our diagnostic services help in treating such diseases as:
- Acute and chronic hepatitis
- Barrett esophagus
- Celiac disease
- Colon cancers
- Gastritis
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Liver cancers
- Pancreas cancers
Our faculty members are subspecialty trained in gastrointestinal, hepatic, and pancreatobiliary pathology with years of subspecialty practice in a multidisciplinary academic environment.
We offer consultative reviews for all cases as well as special testing, immunohistochemistry (including mismatch repair gene testing for colon cancers), in situ hybridization (HER2NEU for esophagogastric cancer) and molecular diagnostic testing (KRAS and BRAF mutation testing among others).
