This course covered a wide variety of topics on the skin, from morphology and grossing to Mohs surgery, but in no way was it exhaustive. The field of dermatopathology is vast, fascinating, and challenging. It is similar to other specialties in that it has its terminology, protocols, and unique techniques. This course aimed to expose histotechnologists (and pathology laboratory personnel) to the various aspects of dermatopathology and shed light on the early stages of skin specimen processing. Hopefully, this course even encouraged histotechnologists to confidently explore working with skin tissue.
