    For a non pathologist like myself, just someone who really enjoys morphology, I'll like to thank you for the hours of teaching you have given me. You are both a scholar and teacher a rare combination .....Thank you!!
  • @missknowall
    Beautiful video. I have seen it over and over again and every time I learn something new out of it.
  • @hellboy1710
    Thank you for your video. Could you do a presentation on panniculitis? Those diseases really challenge me whenever encouterd on clinical practice and that's when I think of dermatopathology.
  • @imrangorur3417

    Thank you sir for the video. For a a pathology resident like me your videos are very informative. I expect more videos sir. If possible not only of dermatopathology but also of soft tissue slides.

  • @ferhatozden
    Such a great video again. Love it! Many thanks Jerad.
  • @wallendegen1
    Excellent as always, could you do one on skin adnexal tumours.
  • @ATHLETE.X
    It’d be interesting to see info on Behçet’s, seeing as it has dermatological aspects and is a type of vasculitis.

    Vasculitis seems to be unmissible as an easy diagnosis with the patient's presentation much more with an Hematoxylin and Eosin Stain (H&E Staion). It is rather assuring that the immunostaining (immunofloresence) is plain and simple flawless as a Leukocytoclastic Vaculitis LCV diagnosis....Cheerz Fellow Gardner.
