As supervisor of Histology, I review and sign off on the SOPs yearly. Any new
or altered are final approved by our medical director. The medical director
also signs off on the hardcopy manuals each year.

I am wondering how other hospital connected histology labs handle requests from
patients to get their tissue back. I am especially interested in the
placentas. Our pathologists and managers are struggling to come up with a
policy that is sensitive to various religions and cultures but keeps
Hello,

Does anyone knows a Co. in Texas that does on site testing for short time

Is there a block alignment tool that will work in a cryostat? I work in
research and frequently have to go back and recut small pieces of tissue. My
Leica allows me to adjust the head but it is very difficult to get the block
lined up on the same axis as before.

Lin, we use a company called Advanced Chemical Sensors, who will send you
badges to be worn by the personnel exposed. They simply fill out a form telling
what they did, what protection and controls were used (ie, fume hood) and
length of exposure. The tech wears the badge for the specified time

We normally do not allow patients to have their specimens back after
they are signed out, but recently we did have a patient request a

specimens for 2 weeks after sign out and that it would have to go in formalin
as well. Also once had a patient request her uterus and another

I like Michael's solution. We used to give them out 10 cases at a time as they
came off the stainer.
Currently, I am in a lab that color codes blocks by service (GI, GYN, ENT,
