Mohs Lab Log.
An app idea for dermatology clinics.
Replaces the paper Mohs lab log with a simple digital record of each stage, block and margin, shared between the Mohs surgeon and the histology tech.
What the search found
- Who pays
- Mohs surgeon or Mohs lab manager
- The problem
- The Mohs lab runs on a paper log and the surgeon and tech shout stage numbers across the room. If the paper is misread or lost, the mapping between block, margin and stage is gone.
- The gap
- Legendehr covers Mohs documentation inside a full dermatology EHR, which is heavy and priced for the whole practice. The results show no small standalone digital Mohs lab log for a single surgeon and tech.
- Already out there
- Legendehr Mohs workflow legendehr.com
Full dermatology EHR with stage-by-stage Mohs documentation and CPT generation. It is a whole-practice system, not a light lab log.
- Laboratory Manual for Mohs Micrographic Surgery link.springer.com
A textbook on frozen tissue processing. It is reference material, not a tracking tool.

- People asking for it
- MOHS Tech reddit.com
A Mohs tech describes starting the role with no prior histology experience, which points to how much the job depends on local lab routine.
- Mohs was not what I was expecting reddit.com
Patient describes the surgeon scraping the bulk of the tumor and then taking more tissue, showing the repeated stage process.
- Mohs closure with plastics reddit.com
Patient says it took three passes, which shows how many stages a single case can run.
- MOHS Tech reddit.com
- The big assumption
- Mohs surgeons and techs will move off paper for a task they do at the bench with gloves on, where a screen is awkward.
- Test it this week
- Ask 5 Mohs surgeons or techs you know to show you their current paper log. Watch one case and time how often they write on it. Ask if they would use a tablet or phone at the bench.
