Trade ReviewFrom the reviews:
“This is a collection of photomicrographs with concise descriptions of common H&E stained frozen sections skin and skin cancers … . The ideal audience for this book is beginning Mohs micrographic surgeons, pathologists … and dermatology residents assisting in a Mohs surgery clinic. … This is an excellent book to keep near the microscope for teaching sessions. It is ideal for students of Mohs surgery tissue specimen interpretation as it presents an elegantly illustrated, organized, and thoughtful approach to the topic.” (Jon C. Starr, Doody’s Book Reviews, April, 2013)
