**Present’s a Fall Lunch n’ Learn**

The Optimization of Fixation & Processing

One of the most fundamentally critical elements of diagnostic histopathology is 
first the ability to suspend all cellular activity in tissue and prevent 
degradation, and secondly to process that specimen in a manner that facilitates 
subsequent steps such as microtomy and staining. The successful result of this 
is a microscopic image of cellular detail that most closely emulates the 
morphologic structure of disease as well as normal tissue.  The concept of 
‘fluid transfer’ will be emphasized as a key factor attributing to the success 
of fixation and processing.  Innovative design in instrumentation will be 
reviewed to better understand how the industry has responded to the demand for 
more efficient methods.  Benefits and selective use of rapid 
fixation/processing will be discussed along with methods of troubleshooting. (2 
CEU’s)

The Circle of Service

The challenges of health care, particularly in the field of Histology, 
oftentimes makes it difficult to deliver quality service. This session focuses 
on the imperative that the Histologist must always remember; that we are an 
integral and critical part of the diagnostic process. This session will detail 
the value and wealth that they to the patient, and therefore that they must 
maintain the standard of 'Quality Care'. (2 CEU’s)
