In part two of our interview with Consultant Dermatopathologist, Dr Bipin Mathew, Bipin talks about BAP1-inactivated melanocytomas (BIMs). His interest in these entities stem from the increased understanding that molecular pathology has given pathologists in diagnosing these melanocytomatic tumours. Bipin talks about some of the fascinating cases of BIMs he has seen in his work, and the team who he works with on diagnosing them and recommending treatment.
