Did you know: The average Dermatologist does 600 to 700 skin biopsies a year.

Posted by James Bond (aka Igor) (aka Igor) Jan 4 '10, 20:59

Many Dermatologists read their own skin biopsy slides to help make the diagnosis of the patient's skin disease. (I find that hard to believe.. I wonder how old these lecture notes are).

Also... class just started and I already have 2 evaluations to fill out. WTF?

- I was referring to them reading their own slides. Otherwise, I have no clue as to how many biopsies they do. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 4, 21:06
