This is our quarterly report on pathologists based on our Worldwide Directory of Pathologists. It provides information of interest to pathologists that is not available anywhere else, to our knowledge. We are initially focusing on pathologists in the U.S. and Canada. We are excluding pathologists who requested the inactivation of their profiles.Totals are as of 9 May 2024, unless otherwise indicated.

The quality of this data will improve as more pathologists review and update their profiles. Pathologists, please review your pathology profile this month, when you move institutions and at least annually. Make sure the Title (text), Status (trainee, staff or retired), Year of birth and Gender are completed. The Year of birth and Gender will only be used for summary totals in this report; individual responses will not be posted anywhere or made available to anyone.
Please click to add or revise your profile (make sure birth year, gender, position and pronouns are completed) or use our Name Search to review your profile.

We added 2,006 profiles in Q1 of 2024 for a total of 28,237 pathologist profiles completed as of 9 May 2024. For the U.S., we added 1,916 profiles for a total of 24,396. For Canada, we added 6 profiles for a total of 2,214. We believe the Directory is > 90% complete for all U.S. & Canadian pathologists.

Specialties and subspecialties

We prefer pathologists to only list specialties or subspecialties in which they received specific training or have a particular interest. Pathologists that review almost all specimens should list anatomic or clinical pathology. Most pathologists should list at most 3 - 4 options.

To date, the top specialties or subspecialties listed in our worldwide profile directory are

Anatomic	17,733
Clinical	15,353
Cytopathology	4,579
Hematopathology	3,743
Molecular & genetics	2,566
Dermatopathology	2,357

Note: we are excluding surgical from this list (3,469) because its use does not appear to be consistent.


Ambassadors

As of 29 May 2024, we have ambassadors for 64 institutions / regions. Ambassadors help ensure that the Directory includes all practicing pathologists for their group (unless they opt out), tell us when pathologists come and go and otherwise assist in making the Directory as accurate as possible. More information about being an ambassador is here. If interested, please contact Amal@PathologyOutlines.com.
