Dermatopathology

What is dermatopathology?

Dermatopathology is the review of skin specimens under a microscope.

Why have a specimen reviewed by a dermatopathologist?

Often, a biopsy is needed to definitively diagnose and treat a skin lesion or rash. A dermatopathologist’s skill and knowledge is key to an accurate analysis of the specimen.
