[Histonet] FDA Disclaimer
Good Morning... I have a question about the FDA disclaimer for Immuno's. If we are not doing the staining of Immuno's in our lab, but our Pathologists are interpreting those that are stained at our reference lab, are we still required to put the FDA disclaimer on our Path reports for those antibodies that require the disclaimer? Thanks so much!! Valerie Valerie A. Hannen, MLT(ASCP),HTL,SU(FL) Histology Section Chief Parrish Medical Center 951 N.

RE: [Histonet] Faxitron Xray digital imaging
We have used the Faxitron instrument for the past 3 years at multiple sites. Faxitron creates a digital image of a specimen quickly and safely and a t multiple magnifications. The instrument is placed in either Surgery or Surgical Pathology (SP) and we use it primarily on breast cases to assist in orientation and gross dissection, identifying radioactive seeds or locating micro calcification. The instrument is easy to use, safe and you can connect to multiple LIS systems and a Hospital PACS. There is no code to charge for use when used in SP, only when used by Radiology or Surgery. There is only one company that manufactures and sells the instrument: Faxitron Bioptics, LLC Tucson, AZ 877-910-0030 The are willing to bring a unit to your site for demonstration and you may be able to talk them into leaving for a evaluation.

[Histonet] FW: Fungus Controls
I have used orange peel for years. I never had a problem with the pathologist not approving the control for use on patient stains. Its naturally occurring, a petri dish would not be naturally occurring in my mind. Once I verified the orange peel does stain the fungus the same way it does in human tissue by doing a side by side staining the pathologist were fine with it. Actually happy I was able to save some money. Most controls you get from other source are not human either, usually it some type of animal. Try the orange peel. I did like the idea of using the some type of moldy meat or having your micro department do something for you I have never tried that, but if it works that would be awesome. Thanks, Timothy N.

First, if you are fortunate to have a micro department nearby, they can make a very nice one for you (a Histotip in Sakura's Histologic). Another method, which doesn't work the best, can be moldy orange peel. And the easiest, you can create your own (moldy sausage) or even take some human tissue (fresh lung works the best) and leave it with some moldy meat, then you can get a great one. Good luck!

You actually need the performing lab's disclaimer. We've sent stains and other procedures to several other labs. We refer to the disclaimers as ASR's (analyte specific reagents) and build templates for each lab's specific comments in our APLIS.

[Histonet] RE: FDA Disclaimer (Hannen, Valerie)
Valerie, If your pathologist is reading your IHC send-outs then he is most likely contracted through that third party company (he gets PC compensation) and they do the technicial work. In our case, our pathologist signs out our routine HE Final Surgical Pathology Report and when he reads the IHC he uses their report portal to issue those results using their letterhead with the FDA disclaimer attached at the end of the report. Sometimes he may incorporate the IHC results in the original report as revised but we always piggy back the third party IHC report (with digital pathology images) to the original. It might be best to contact the IHC company representative and find out excatly who is legally responsible for the disclaimer - the technical service provider or the proffesional.
