The HistoQIP Specialty Series includes modules to improve the preparation of histologic slides in all anatomic pathology laboratories involved in the handling of gastrointestinal, dermatologic, urogenital tract, and gynecologic biopsies. In this educational program, an expert panel of pathologists, histotechnologists, and histotechnicians evaluates submitted slides for histologic technique using uniform grading criteria. Participants receive a laboratory-specific evaluation and a participant summary with performance benchmarking, commentary from evaluators, and peer comparison data.
Program Information
Participants may submit up to four H&E stained and coverslipped glass slides (one from each category) per mailing
