TL;DR: This Internet-based quiz suggests significant shortcomings in the routine H&E diagnosis of serrated colorectal polyps and suggests standardization of nomenclature, training of pathologists, and possibly development of ancillary techniques are of paramount importance for accurate patient management.

TL;DR: It is shown that large-scale international online quizzes may be used to find educational deficits in cytopathology and that 54.5% of all participants misclassified decoy cells as malignant.

TL;DR: An overview of the factors to keep in mind when introducing virtual microscopy is given and several commercially available virtual slide acquisition systems (VSAS) have been developed that use various technologies to acquire and distribute virtual slides.

TL;DR: Physical and technical limitations of the VS technology are described to clarify the demands on a VS acquisition system and a new type of web-based VS viewer open to public use is introduced, allowing anyone to set up a VS system with high usability at low cost.

TL;DR: Site-specific genetic and epigenetic features may impact the response of melanomas to various anti-cancer drugs and should be considered in future studies on the molecular pathogenesis of malignant melanomas.
