Intraoral minor salivary gland neoplasms are diagnostically challenging lesions—often presenting as small biopsies with overlapping morphologic features and significant clinical implications. Accurate interpretation requires more than pattern recognition alone; it demands structured reasoning, awareness of pitfalls, and judicious use of special stains and ancillary tests.
This SlideBox 360 session by Dr. Nicole A. Cipriani follows a two-phase learning format that mirrors real-world diagnostic practice.
Participants receive access to representative WSI slides and relevant clinical history, allowing them time to assess the cases and formulate their own differential diagnoses independently.
15 Slides
14 Lesions
Format- WSI (Whole Slide Imaging)

To get a sense of the depth and approach Dr. Cipriani brings to diagnostic reasoning, you may find this Journal Club with the Author session from Oral Pathology 360 valuable.
In this discussion, Dr. Nicole A. Cipriani, as the author, answers audience questions and explores key diagnostic considerations in Top 10 Clear Cell Head and Neck Lesions to Contemplate, reflecting the same structured, case-based thinking that underpins The Diagnostic Table – Slide 360 sessions.
