[Histonet] IHC service ??
Can you tell me what kind of on-site technical service you are accustomed to receiving from Ventana (especially if you NOT in a big city so travel is required)? We have had a terrible time getting a Field service engineer into our lab this year and wonder if that is the norm for Ventana these days? For the Dako users - what kind of service are you getting?

[Histonet] TTF-1
Is anyone using the SPT24 clone for TTF-1 using the Ultraview platform on the Benchmark XT?

RE: [Histonet] High Complexity Testing
This is the response I received a year ago from CAP when asked the same question regarding high complexity testing - Immunohistochemistry staining (manual or automated) is considered specimen processing and is not assigned a test complexity Has something changed recently?

Our pathologist believes that ALL histology low complexity testing since a machine is doing the work. Can anyone help me out with some guidelines, literature, etc. that says otherwise?

[Histonet] validation of tissue processor
Hello Histoland 1. I am just curious what process is followed for validating a new tissue processor? 2. Do you validate every IHC stain again or can you simply re-validate a representative sample of IHC and be ok?
