*Look in particular for whatever is '''requested''' or '''suspected''' on the requisition form or equivalent. While learning, you will generally focus relatively more on high magnification features with high specificity, but still have a habit of learning how your cases look at '''low magnification''' as well. In time, you will increasingly correlate diseases and conditions with their overall low magnification patterns - patterns that may require 1000 words to describe and thus cannot conveniently be part of written criteria, but will nevertheless allow you to make quicker and more accurate diagnoses.

*Make an '''overall''' screening of the slide for any other abnormalities. It is usually helpful to Google multiple images of the normal histology of the location you are looking at, and compare those to what you see.
