   I  was  just  curious  to know how you guys prepared for = it, and how

   preparation
   be enough? (I know that may depend on the indi= vidual; it's just that

   Hi C.A.,
   I  don't have the HT or HTL, but from my college teaching experience    in  
histology  and  histotechniques, I just wanted to caution you that
   memoriz=  ing  is not what you should be doing. You need to understand
   concepts, so th= at when you need to troubleshoot problems you will be
   able to think through= things, rule some things out, and make sense of
   the situation. I see this = all the time with my students, they forget
   things  they  memorize,  but then t= hey finally understand things and
   can  figure  things  out.  One  of  the new tea= ching tools is having
   students  prepare  "concept maps," to see the= relationships of topics
   and  terms,  and  these  linkages  will help you in the= long run. For
   histology examples, see:
   [13]http://www.biologycorner.com/anatomy/tissues/tissue_conce   
pt_map_samples.html
   I don't know of any concept maps for his= totechnology on the web, but
   I am going to add this to my course next year!   Esther

   Hi Sarah,
   Joyce  is  correct,  under medicare changes in patho= logy coding, you
   can  not  bill  for  each  of  the  blocks  of  the  same  antibody a   
pplications,  only  one  charge per specific antibody mentioned in the
   patholo=  gy  report  is  allowable.  Medicare  immuno  billing is per
   "specimen"=  only for each specific antibody used, example if you used
   s100  for  the sam= e specimen (wide melanoma excision)on 15 different
   blocks,  under  medicare  y= ou can only bill one GO461, yes- not fair
   when the need is appropriate,
   I  must  voice  my opinio)- this probably will lower some of the over   
utilization  and  inappropriate billing practices that many of us have
   seen  =  in  the  immunohistochemistry  world  and  the labs that have
   capitalized   on   the=   practice,   the   problem   with  the  lower
   reimbursements  and  change in medicare= coding hurts many of our labs
   who have used the utilization of immunohisto= chemistry appropriately.
   However,  "under  current  2014&= quot; CPT coding on non medicare can
   you bill for the additional work per b= lock using the 88342 and 88343
   cpt  code,  I am sure moving forward we are go= ing to continue to see
   adjustments to the pathology coding processes!

   Hi all,
   I've  been  having problems with cryosectioning fatty tissue for a lo   ng  
time  now. The section leaves a hole in the middle. I know this is
   probab=  ly a much discussed topic, but I've tried a lot of strategies
   with  no  luck.=  The  tissue is of mouse origin and has micro-lesions
   buried inside fat. So = the fat needs to be cut in order to get to the
   lesion. I started with a tem= perature of -17C and tried upto -25C and
   also  at  -50C;  didn't  work  at any o= f these temperatures. I tried
   rubbing  the  block, blade and anti-roll plate = with dry ice-again,no
   luck.
   I  rapid-freeze  the tissue with OCT = in LN2 and then store the block
   at -80C. Could I try sectioning the block d= irectly from -80C? (never
   done that).
   Any other suggestions on = how to tackle this?
   Any advice is much appreciated!!
   = Thanks,
   Dakshna

   Subject: [Histonet] = HELP- Cryosectioning FAT!
   Hi all,
   I've  been  having  pr=  oblems with cryosectioning fatty tissue for a
   long  time now. The section le= aves a hole in the middle. I know this
   is  probably  a  much  discussed  topic,  =  but  I've  tried a lot of
   strategies  with  no  luck.  The  tissue  is of mouse ori= gin and has
   micro-lesions buried inside fat. So the fat needs to be cut in = order
   to get to the lesion. I started with a temperature of -17C and tried    upto 
 -25C and also at -50C; didn't work at any of these temperatures.
   I  tri=  ed  rubbing  the  block,  blade  and anti-roll plate with dry
   ice-again,no luck.   I  rapid-freeze  the tissue with OCT in LN2 and then 
store the b= lock
   at  -80C.  Could I try sectioning the block directly from -80C? (never
   d= one that).
   Any other suggestions on how to tackle this?
   Any advice is much appreciated!!
   Thanks,
   Dakshna

   Hi Laurie,
   =  No,  the  tissue hasn't been fixed before freezing. My prof doesn't
   prefer  th=  e  method,  but if nothing else works, we might give it a
   try.
   An= y suggested protocols for fixation?
   Thanks!
