2 Q And you are board certified in what fields
3 of pathology?
4 A Anatomic pathology which is all, if you
5 will, the glass slides you look at to make diagnoses,
6 and also in cytopathology which is, for our purposes,
7 the examination of Pap smears and other specimen like
8 that.
9 Q The jury has heard in cases of mesothelioma
10 sometimes fluid is removed from the chest and examined
11 by pathologists.
12 Is that anatomical pathology?
13 A That is anatomic pathology and, as a matter
14 of fact, specifically, it is cytopathology because you
15 are looking at the cells that are in that .fluid and
16 trying to make a diagnosis from them as opposed to
17 just looking at a piece of tissue.
18 Q You are board certified in both anatomic
19 pathology and in the field of cytopathology which
20 looks at fluid specimens?
21 A I am.
