Hi All- I have a couple things I am looking for assist on today: 1. Are your HT's doing frozen section cutting? Are they also doing the frozen section gross and inking? Are they staining the slides? We are interested in doing this and looking for how others do. 2. Do your HT's gross smalls? What does that include? How did you train them and can you share that information? Is there a guide out there you would recommend?
