That seems like a lot of effort. Do your pathologists do the grossing? or PA's?

I'm interested in the same for cassette labeling. Currently, we have the patient's last name on one side of the cassette, and the site listed on the other. This makes it easier to identify blocks if they are numbered incorrectly. Beth A.
