Pathos is made by Milestone not Leica.

We can process in as little as 1 hour (usually biopsy specimens). Each machine has 2 processing chambers and can process up to 300 blocks per chamber. It was a good choice for us since we do appx 15,000 cases a year...Maintenance is easy....I use the Pathos from Leica (microwave technology) at my part time job processing dermatology specimens (appx 10,000 cases a year) and it works great. Contact Leica for some brochures on their equipment. Hope this helps... ~Kim Tournear ~ Histology Supervisor Tucson Medical Center Tucson, AZ ~Don't let your life end before it begins~ OU Rocks!!!! --- On Mon, 12/29/08, Jane C.

We are a small hospital lab doing about 2500 cases a year (6000 specimens.) Would anyone have a recommendation on a new processor for our size lab? An Excelsior was brought in for demo (not sure what model) but that one was being discontinued and we were waiting to see the new model. We were also waiting on a "new" model VIP to bring in for demo-but that has not happened yet. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
