Research Interests:
Dr. Monaco's interests include fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy diagnosis, cytology-histology correlations, and the application of ancillary studies and molecular diagnostics in cytopathology. She is also interested in breast/gynecologic surgical pathology and cytology. In addition, she is interested in pediatric cytopathology and has expertise in the use of FNA in children. Dr. Monaco has also presented several educational courses at national meetings, including the United Stated and Canadian Academy of Pathology (USCAP), American Society of Cytopathology (ASC) and the American Society of Clinical Pathologists (ASCP).
