HistoQIP Biopsy Series

HistoQIP Biopsy Series

To serve subspeciality labs, e.g., histology labs specializing in dermatopathology or small biopsies, the National Society for Histotechnology (NSH), and the College of American Pathologists (CAP) have partnered to offer quality assessment tools similar to the original HistoQIP program for biopsies.

The HistoQIP Biopsy Series is an additional program to improve the preparation of histologic slides in all anatomic pathology laboratories.

The HistoQIP Biopsy Series is an additional program to improve the preparation of histologic slides in all anatomic pathology laboratories. Participants will receive an evaluation specific to their laboratory and a participant summary. An expert panel of pathologists, histotechnologists, and histotechnicians will evaluate submitted slides for histologic technique using uniform grading criteria.
