Edie, What a challenge. I would strongly recommend you give it a go. I like to score fixation, processing and staining quality of slides I and my staff produce. It allows us to have control over the science of histotechnology not the pathologists (they have enough to worry about - the diagnosis, clinical demands etc).
When a department runs this way, it does not take long for the pathologist to realise the invaluable resource their labs are. In fact they become quite proud of it!

Our paths want us to score then and they not be involved. Is this what everone else is doing?
