[Histonet] RE: Sterile slides for FNA
What a great resource.

I was wondering if I could get some feedback about whether anyone uses sterile slides for FNAs, if you do them. While most of the radiologists transfer the core from the end of the needle onto the slide by using a scalpel to assist, we have one radiologist who prefers to place the core directly onto the slide by using the needle. This is fine, unless he needs to go back in and make another pass. If the needle has touched a slide which is not sterile, then the needle would have to be changed to prevent contamination of the site. Does anyone use sterile slides, and are these available in a small quantity so that there is no waste? Vendors are welcome to reply to me directly, unless others would like the information as well.

[Histonet] Re: Contiued Ed HTL
Hi Ryan, There are many options for free or inexpensive continuing education opportunities. The CAP website http://www.cap.org has some if your lab participates in any surveys or HQIP. ARUP has some free webinars at http://www.aruplab.com/education/self-education. Leica offers free webinars at http://www.leicabiosystems.com/pathologyleaders/ Webinars are nice because you can watch them anytime it's convenient. I hope this helps!

[Histonet] Cryostat purchasing
Hi Everyone, Can anyone recommend a good Cryostat to buy for use with Human Tissues. I'd like to look for a reasonably priced model. Also, I'd consider paying extra for a model that is designed for human tissues so it has disinfection ability or is easier to disinfect than older models. I'd also consider going with a refurbished model if the price was right. I am used to cutting on CM3000 and CM3050s which are quite old.
