Good luck with Beaker.  We switched in April and had many issues.  Insist on a 
complete run through of a specimen, from collecting to billing before you go 
live.  We had issues where our pathologist did not have access, printers were 
not linked,  etc.  Get used to the phrase "It's hard coded" which is used by 
the Beaker folks when something cannot be changed.  The interface is more 
involved than with our homegrown database and now almost eight months later it 
is taking us about double the time to do the data entry.  Also, schedule a 'At 
the elbow support person' to be in your lab area a full week when you go live.  
This is a Beaker term for someone who has experience using the system from 
another organization.  And finally, get ready to start a lot of tickets, which 
is the way that your get something addressed in EPIC.  The first day, I put in 
34.

"They" aren't the ones that will have to use it.....therein lies the rub!   I 
have not heard many positive things about AP Beaker.

I'm looking for anyone out there that has switched to Beaker for AP, Also do 
you use Ventana Connect with Beaker?  Did you choose to use the Beaker tracking 
system or is anyone using Beaker in conjunction with Vantage?  Our Hospital is 
in the beginning phase of moving from Copath Sunquest to Beaker (2017 version) 
.  Any thoughts of what has gone well and what has not would be appreciated.

Thanks so much

Hi there,

May I ask you your opinion about which system you are using to take
gross pictures? We are using a couple of big tungsten light bulbs and
a Nikon d60 camera. We are a research lab working with sheep, so we
get big lesions in big organs. I was wondering if anybody is using a
Digital Gross Photography System and how they compare with a "more
ytraditional" digital camera approach.

As always, thank you so much for your opinions. Greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Julio

We have used handheld digital cameras for our research in sheep in Galveston.  
For autopsies at the Shriners hospital, we use handheld cameras, one operated 
by a professional photographer, and also an old copy stand with hot lights and 
a backlight and a Sony digital camera with a macro lens on an alpha lens mount 
adapter, which works pretty well.  The new macro photography in the UTMB 
autopsy service is great -- you enter the case number and put the specimen on 
the stand, and the system handles focus, exposure and record keeping and 
provides excellent pictures.

Hi everyone!

Does anyone have experience with immunohistochemistry or immunofluorescence 
anti-6x HisTag on frozen sections, mouse tissue? I can find online lots of 
references for immunocytochemistry, but not much on tissue staining. Any help 
or hints would be much appreciated!

Kind regards,

Hi,
We use MakroPath from Milestone in a routine histolab. The camera is mounted
on the top oft he grossing-station, with an integrated PC+monitor and pedals
for zooming and taking photos. Within this system you can mark the pictures,
draw something, measure something ...
In comparison to the older method with digital-camera, manual zoom etc. it
is very conveniant.  Picture quality is high.

Gudrun
