In keeping with the ProPath mission, our division is dedicated to excellence in diagnostic Hematopathology including (but not limited) to blood, bone marrow, and lymph nodes. To this end, three extraordinary groups of pathologists have formed a division unparalleled in the region.
Morphological and Flow Cytometry determinations are performed by a group of experienced, specialty-boarded ProPath hematopathologists with more than 40 years of combined experience in this subspecialty.
As the largest physician-owned pathology practice in the southwest region, ProPath focuses on understanding the needs of our clinical colleagues to provide superior patient care. We also understand that these needs vary with specialty and physician preferences.
The Division of Hematopathology provides customized service for clients including: preparation of extra bone marrow biopsy histology sections for hematologist examination, easy access to a hematopathologist, training and help with bone marrow biopsy procedures, and immunohistochemical staining for various antigens.
Through the ProPath bone marrow kit and courier system, bone marrow and lymph node tissue is preserved and efficiently transported from all over the North Texas area to the laboratory. Processing occurs within 24 hours, virtually eliminating inadequate results due to non-viable cell samples. Morphological diagnoses are available within one day of receipt; flow cytometry within 1-2 days. Cytogenetic and molecular diagnostic results are generally available in 10 business days although preliminary results can be available much earlier.
The division founder and director, Craig Litz, MD, has extensive and broad experience in diagnostic hematopathology as well as in bone marrow biopsy and aspiration procedures. He was trained and became an associate professor at the internationally recognized-hematopathology laboratory at the University of Minnesota under the direction of Dr. Richard Brunning. Dr. Litz is author of over 60 publications and abstracts, many which led to meritorious recognition, and has lectured on the subject at national and regional meetings.
