Summary

A gap in pathology training regarding quality improvement and patient safety affects diagnostic safety. This study evaluates a structured curriculum aimed at enhancing pathology trainee competence and confidence. Its success in shifting attitudes and skills supports wider adoption in residency programs. Integrating such education nationally could promote a culture of safety and open error management in pathology.
