Introduction
Intraoperative frozen section diagnoses play a significant role in patient management. Evaluation is often challenging due to various artifacts, time constraints, and lack of ancillary tests. Interpretation is solely dependent on H&E morphology, and thus mastery of this skill requires extensive practice. Various specimen types are encountered daily on a busy service, which requires a broad scope of knowledge. This study set includes a sampling of frozen sections collected from the Massachusetts General Hospital frozen section service and is meant to serve as an educational resource for pathology trainees. -Nida Safdar, MD
