WHO SHOULD EVALUATE OR BIOPSY YOUR SKIN?
There are many resources available through the Internet on the World Wide Web regarding skin disease, especially skin cancer. The following links, updated often, provide a diverse resource of credible and reliable information to patients, their families and healthcare providers:
Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report
College of American Pathologists
American Society of Clinical Pathology
Department of Health and Human Services
National Women's Health Information Center
U.S. State and Local Government Gateway
National Health Information Center
Office of the Surgeon General of the USA
NEBRASKA SKIN INSTITUTE ™ is a public-private effort in healthcare services related to educating Nebraskans about proper skin care as well as the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of skin conditions, including skin cancers. If you undergo a skin biopsy, the skin specimen may be sent to NEBRASKA SKIN INSTITUTE ™ and its affiliate, Pathology Services, P.C. for processing, evaluation, diagnosis, and inclusion in its database. Having your skin biopsy specimen(s) sent to Pathology Services, PC. is not required to avail yourself of the resources of NEBRASKA SKIN INSTITUTE ™. If your healthcare provider sends your skin biopsy specimen elsewhere, NEBRASKA SKIN INSTITUTE ™ would appreciate a copy of your pathology report to include its diagnosis in its Nebraska cancer registry. Ongoing national research furthers our efforts to continually improve skin disease diagnosis and treatment for Nebraskans.
