Here is the scenario......we are located in one state and the hospital we want to provide frozen section coverage for is in another state. Can they have a histotech on site that can prepare the frozen and then send the image to my pathologist to read it? Does that person onsite have to be a pathologist assistant, or can the Pathologist use technology to guide the histotech on what sections to take?
We are getting mixed answers on this. Some say yes, we can and others are saying because it is not FDA approved, we cannot use this as primary screening. Appreciate any input..... Like the idea of the WebEx too, thanks Douglas. And thank you Sheila for the info on Sakura. Has anyone used Remove Meeting Technologists (RMT) Software?

The remote site projects the microscopic image onto their desktop then shares the desktop. We also have one account that has an IP addressable microscope. This costs more but is more efficient.
