[Histonet] Your experience with barcoding and materials tracking in grossing and histology

[Morken, Timothy]

Hi all, I am giving a talk at NSH about implementing barcoding and materials 
tracking in histology. I have that experience with Cerner Copath ABT, but not 
other systems. I'd like to hear from others, especially with other systems, 
about their experiences in implementing barcoding in their lab with their own 
LIS, third party vendors (ie, Vantanage, Cerebro, Lab Lion, Dako, others). Pros 
and cons, lessons learned, etc that would help others starting down that path. 
The point of the talk is the generalities of implementation, not a marketing 
talk on any particular system, though I would like to know why you chose a 
given system, whether you were able to use your own LIS for barcoding or had to 
use a third party vendor.

Thanks in advance for any and all information.

So we have the Vantage system with CoPath ABT.  With CoPath you cannot use 
Vantage 

unless you get ABT.  I actually like Vantage alot.  There are some issues that 
make it a 

little difficult to use and I would love to talk to you directly since trying 
to put it all in an e-mail 

is crazy.  If you want you can call my cell 856-905-1549.
