This Scheme assesses archival surgical stained sections, 2 routine staining methods employed during Mohs surgery. The first case is requested from any site, the second case is from the specific site/tissue composition detailed on the delivery letter*

Staining Criteria Handbook available in Members' Area

Rationale

For each case,

• slide 1 - must demonstrate tumour

slide 2 - must be a full-face cryostat section, usually with inked margins indicating orientation.

The associated slides must be a true representation of that case, and of the quality performed as part of routine daily workload.


Submission

2 archival stained preparations, from 2 distinct Mohs surgery biopsies, which are designated on the accompanying delivery letter issued with each assessment run.


Report

Individualised.
