Complex cancer cases often require more than a routine test; they require expert interpretation. COP offers case consults that support diagnostic confidence in challenging or high-impact scenarios through specialist review and clinically relevant guidance.
How Our Experts
Review Cases
Our experts review complex and equivocal high-stakes oncopathology cases where diagnostic clarity is critical. The consult may involve reviewing pathology material and/or existing reports, with findings presented in a structured and clinically relevant format.

The diagnosis is rare, unusual or diagnostically challenging
Findings are equivocal, borderline, or require deeper interpretation
There is discordance between pathology, clinical presentation, and/or imaging
Confirmation is needed before significant treatment decisions
Biomarker interpretation requires integrated clinical–pathological context
An outside laboratory report, slides, or tissue blocks require specialist review
