Description:
This on-demand webinar covers pathology content areas outlined by the American Board of Dermatology (ABD) Study Guide to prepare for the MDS Subspecialty Certification Examination.

The ABD was not involved in preparing this course and does not attest to whether the course is a reflection of the content of the MDS exam.

Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:
• Identify histopathology of benign and malignant mimickers of basal cell carcinoma as seen on frozen sections.
• Differentiate the various basaloid tumors encountered by the Mohs surgeon.
• Discuss challenging cases where accurate diagnosis of benign and malignant basaloid tumors leads to precise and efficient tumor extirpation while minimizing morbidity.
• Interpret froze sections with MART-1 stains for melanoma.
• Recognize unique pathology specimens and histology of rare skin malignancies.
• Review the use of Immunohistochemistry in micrographic surgery.
