Dr. Hammond presented the new guidelines for ER (it is just ER not PR as I recall) at the AIMM meeting in Florida at the end of January this year and the fixation times for Breast have been extended to 72 hours, it is supposed to be changed to 72 hours for Her2 as well but I do not know if that has happened yet or not.
