Dermatopathology Services offers expert skin biopsy interpretation and consultation in the diagnosis of inflammatory and neoplastic diseases of skin. We routinely utilize light microscopy, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. In collaboration with Molecular Diagnostics Services, we also employ targeted genetic sequencing and other molecular studies, particularly in the field of melanoma care.
Dermatopathology Services are provided by a board-certified pathologist with additional subspecialty board certification in Dermatopathology. This dermatopathologist specializes in clinicopathologic correlation to provide optimal interpretation of each patient's biopsy.
A dermatopathology requisition form with clinical history and a differential diagnosis must accompany the specimen(s). Please include the ICD10 code.
Please contact Client Services 804-828-PATH (828-7284); 1-800-363-9234 for assistance with the requisition form and detailed information about transportation & specimen handling.
