The program accessions approximately 26,000 gynecologic and 12,000 non-gynecologic specimens (including 3,200 fine-needle aspiration specimens) annually. Non-gynecologic specimens processed by the laboratory include fine-needle aspiration (FNA) specimens for palpable lesions and deep-seated lesions (e.g., endobronchial ultrasound-guided mediastinal\/hilar lymph node FNAs, endoscopic ultrasound-guided pancreatic FNAs, computed tomography-guided FNAs,\u00a0ultrasound-guided thyroid FNAs, etc.). Fine needle aspirations of palpable lesions are routinely\u00a0performed both as scheduled procedures and on an emergent basis based on referrals from our clinical colleagues.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Smola has co-authored several peer-reviewed studies related to FNAs. Based on his expertise with this procedure, which is critically important to the short-term success for ASP Health, Mr. Smola is another valuable collaborator with his fellow advisors and our company.<\/p>\n<h4>Professional Experience<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>23 years\u2019 experience in both clinical and leadership responsibilities with over 3500 on-site FNAs.<\/li>\n<li>Numerous CAP inspections and collaborations with multiple institutions that perform on-site FNAs<\/li>\n<li>Extensive process improvement\/QA for FNA procedures<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Medical Training<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>MS, Clinical Lab Science, University of Michigan<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1165&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text] Brian Smola, CT (ASCP) Cytotechnologist Collaborator Mr. Smola is the Lead Cytotechnologist at the University of Michigan Cytopathology Service.
