Research summary
AI-generated

Paul E. Wakely's work focuses on diagnostic pathology of head and neck tumors, including salivary gland, thyroid, sinonasal, and soft tissue lesions. Much of the research involves detailed case studies and small case series that characterize rare tumor types, describe distinguishing microscopic and molecular features, and clarify diagnostic pitfalls between similar-looking cancers. This work relies heavily on cytopathology (examining cells obtained via fine-needle aspiration) and immunohistochemistry (staining tissue to detect specific proteins) to improve diagnostic accuracy.
