NextGenPath Diagnostics handles a broad range of skin biopsies.
Dermatopathology is a sub-speciality of Histopathology that deals with diseases of skin.
Skin biopsy interpretation requires an expert dermatopathologist and a panel of special stains with or without immunoflourescence, immunohistochemistry, ultrastructural and molecular studies.
Method of sending the biopsy to our lab: A 3-4mm punch biopsy of skin in 10% neutral buffered formalin.
The Michel's transport medium will be provided from our lab if autoimmune diseases of the skin are suspected.
2.5% buffered glutaraldehyde for electron microscopy will be provided at request.
Samples are received 24x7 on all days.

Learning is a continuous process and we believe that teaching and publishing relevant research are the greatest contributions to the society apart from our patient care services.
NextGenPath Archives serves as an excellent freely available online resource for case-based learning of dermatopathology.
