Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Dr. Susanne Jeffus's research focuses on the diagnostic interpretation of cellular and tissue specimens, particularly in the areas of squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva and cerebrospinal fluid cytology. She has published work examining the interobserver agreement in the classification of vulvar squamous cell carcinoma using markers such as p16 and p53, as well as investigating the spectrum of malignant diagnoses in cerebrospinal fluid cytology from adult populations.
Her work also extends to the diagnostic utility of specific procedures, such as evaluating the yield and impact of pulmonologist-performed EUS-B-FNA for subdiaphragmatic lesions. Dr. Jeffus has also explored potential diagnostic challenges, including the expression of TLE1 in carcinoid tumors of the lung with spindle cell morphology, and has investigated vision loss as a presenting symptom of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma.
In addition to her clinical research, Dr. Jeffus is involved in medical education, serving as the Pathology Residency Program Director at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 16, 64 total publications, and 695 total citations. She has collaborated with several colleagues at UAMS, including Meredith Verret and Nikhil Meena, on multiple publications.
