Bone & Soft Tissue Pathology

Our Bone and Soft Tissue Pathology division offers expert interpretation of various types of specimens, including fine-needle aspirations, biopsies, excisions and wide resections.

Close to 1 million benign soft tissue lesions are diagnosed annually in the United States. Benign lesions heavily outnumber malignant counterparts (sarcomas) by a ratio of about 150-to-1. Sarcomas are therefore relatively infrequent, representing only about 1% of all malignant tumors.

The division uses the most advanced technologies currently available for the identification and diagnosis of soft tissue lesions, including light microscopy, electron microscopy, flow cytometry, immuno- and histochemistry, and molecular and cytogenetic studies. We developed a working collaboration with Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston for referral of our cases to the Harvard University Cytogenetics Laboratory.
