Carlos Ricotti MD is a practicing dermatologist and dermatopathologist in Miami, Fl. Dermatology is a visual field of medicine that requires understanding and interpretation of skin disease morphology. Dermatopathology is a sub-specialty of dermatology that requires the visual interpretation of skin biopsies utilizing light and immunofluorescence microscopy to make a diagnosis. The unusual though beautiful microscopic histologic morphology is unique and displays the complexity of cellular and tissue architecture of the skin. Over 10 years Carlos has utilized de-identified skin biopsy specimens to acquire images and display them in their natural and modified form. The biology of skin is fascinating, however, the visual beauty is unappreciated in its true form. In recent years there has been a renewed cultural interest in art/medical collaborations and his collection show the natural and modified beauty of the skin at a microscopic level. |
