We have 5 Pslims from Accuplace, one at each of our cutting stations. We are interface with PowerPath with AMP. We do struggle with 2 of them but it usually comes down to a network issue. We have worked extensively with Accuplace and have made great progress with resolving our issues. Let it be said that they are still issues.We are 2D bar-coded through out our system, specimen containers, cassettes and slides. We produce no cassettes or slides until they are ready to be used. We have eliminated placing tissue in the wrong numbered cassettes and picking up tissue on the wrong slide, 100% positive patient identification. We wand the cassette and as we are cutting our section the Pslim is printing our slide. Our Pslims work between 90-100% of the time, none of our cutters have to wait for the slide printer to finish to pick up the section. The slides are waiting for us to use them. We are producing between 450 and 600 slides every morning between 0600 and 0830. I would not go back to mass producing slides either hand written or printed by a large slide printer. Individual slide printing at each cutting station should be the wave of the future. If any one would like to speak directly with me please feel free to call after 1000 Mountain time M-F.
