Pathologic diagnosis as the gold standard

L B Rorke. Cancer. .

Abstract

Issues involving brain tumor diagnosis are discussed in light of the frequently observed discrepancies between the diagnoses of general pathologists and neuropathologists. Accuracy of diagnoses could be improved if definitions or criteria for specific categories of tumors were simplified, clearly established, and consensually accepted.
