Hello, We are updating our CJD policy and the question of how to handle brain biopsies with a clinical diagnosis of dementia came up. These are biopsies where CJD is not known or suspected. We are considering if we should follow CJD precautions and protocols for these biopsies. I would appreciate any feedback from those of you handling this kind of specimen. Thanks,
