I discuss issues pertaining to the practice of neuropathology -- including nervous system tumors, neuroanatomy, neurodegenerative disease, muscle and nerve disorders, ophthalmologic pathology, neuro trivia, neuropathology gossip, job listings and anything else that might be of interest to a blue-collar neuropathologist.

Indeed the CAP checklist is over-inclusive and excessively cumbersome. I/we use it because use of CAP "cancer" checklists is essential to continuing accreditation of our cancer center by the ACS and other associations and agencies. I just append it in a microscopic description or comment in addition to my usual narrative report. I don't favor synoptic reports replacing narrative reports, particularly since they don't allow one to easily go into the nuances of diagnoses that don't easily fit the WHO classification or are not yet recognized by the WHO.
I wholeheartedly concur with 'shipcolldoc'.
