what is needed for gross description
DSSCCL
distribution
size
shape
color
consistency
location
what kind of consistency can a disease have
soft → chin/ fatty
firm → nose/ cartilage fibrous
hard → skull (mineral/bone)
kinds of distributions
focal → one
multifocal→ several
diffuse → entire organ
zonal/regional
symmetrical
coalescing
what is the gross description
DSSCCL
distribution: multifocal to coalescing
size: 1-3 mm
shape: round nodules

consistency: firm
location: omentum
There are multifocal to coalescing white/tan 2mm-1cm diameter round firm nodules disseminating throughout the omentum
what is needed for a morphologic diagnosis
SDTAL
severity- mild, moderate, severe
distribution- focal, diffuse, multifocal, regional, symmetrical
time- acute, subacute, chronic
lesion- itis, opathy, oma, infarct, hemorrhage
anatomic site- use medical term
morphologic diagnosis

severity - severe
distribution- multifocal to coalescing
time- chronic
