We have the Sakura rapid tissue processor at my hospital lab, which is a
large private hospital. We have had it three years and it has been somewhat
of a disappointment::

I've got two silvery minnows to deal with. One is about ½ and one 1. I've
not done fish and am not sure if I should decal them first and try to process
them whole or what! A whole mount would be interesting to look at but maybe
that's not the best way. I can't imagine dissecting out tiny

I get everything from mice to birds to fish (zebrafish, but close enough

How is the automated embedding working out for you? The way I see things,
automated embedding is the true killer feature of the Xpress -- that is, if
it works.
Why don't skins process well on the Xpress? (When I first

assigned a surgical number when the specimen is ordered in the OR, GI,

The other part of your question refers to costs. Under separate cover I am
sending you an article I wrote on the cost effectiveness of the Xpress and
other MW technology tissue processor (although the Xpress is an hybrid).
Please also pay attention to the previous answer where it is

We have not implemented Order Entry for Surgical Pathology as of yet, but it
is on the wish list for later this year. We do however, currently do our
Cytology Specimens this way. The case is ordered under OE but it is still
accessioned once received in the laboratory, so the
I think I know the answer, but at the risk of sounding quite ignorant, can
you guys tell me why you'd want to separate 'like' specimen?
To me, at least, manually accessioning a case is an awful steep price to pay
for this desire.

We have Meditech here. Our lab secretaries accession all cases - not the
individual departments. We do not use OE for this. After the secretaries have
ordered the specimens, I do go back into each case to be sure that the correct
tissue description and CPT code have been entered.

I need to run some immunofluorescent labeling on some tissue which was
embedded in JB-4. Does anyone have a protocol? My boss thinks I need to
etch the plastic beforehand. Thanks.

Good luck. Rep was supposed to show up here yesterday and has yet to
arrive or call. We're looking for a different company to work with.
Anyone with suggestions other than a manual arrayer... Right now we're
looking at going semi-automatic to get away from working with them.

We do not use OE. Histo accessions all cytology and surgical specimens. We
separate 'like' specimens in case there is a number mix up. We get a lot of
GI's and skins and just consider it good practice to accession a different
specimen type in between.

Hi All,
We are just wondering if anyone out there is using the Biocare IntelliPATH Flex
Immunostainer? If so how do you like it? Any problems? How long have you had
it? And any other information you could provide about it would be great.
Thanks,

I thought I'd give you my observations on OE. I don't know anything
about Meditech, but with PowerPath it can be very nice. We have
established OE with EPIC. When we receive the specimen, we enter the
order number and virtually every field you need is filled in, patient
demographics, referring
Jessica,
I have had the Bio-Care Intellipath stainer since the middle of December and
love it. If you would like to contact me off line I would be more than happy
