In addition to offering diagnostic services, the Dermatopathology Service, within the Department of Veterinary Pathobiology (VTPB) at the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences (VMBS) also plays an integral role in research related to dermatopathology. Many of the research projects in collaboration with the Dermatopathology Service are related to the pathogenesis of skin diseases, with the hope that furthering our current understanding of how skin diseases develop may lead to more specific and effective diagnostic tests and therapeutics.
We would like to welcome you to our service and look forward to working with you.
Please note, there may be a delay in case turnover during the university winter holidays (Dec 24-Jan 2) due to our central shipping facility being temporarily closed. During this time, we may pick up shipped samples directly from our local Fedex, but we will need the tracking number for each package. Please provide us with the tracking number via email, dermpathimages@cvm.tamu.edu We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Thank you for understanding, and happy holidays!
Please note that skin samples should not be submitted through TVMDL (Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory), but directly to the Texas A&M Dermatopathology Specialty Service.
