Besides manually entering IHC charges, has anyone worked out a way to
automatically bill for 88342 and 88343 on cases in Sunquest CoPathPlus?

Hello,
This may be a little late, but we use a mix of half 30% sucrose and half
OCT to section. It works really well with 14 to 25 micron sections and no
cooling or heating of the slide. Our tissue is very small
though--embryonic spinal cord or brain from chick or mouse. I just change
the way
I just wanted to clarify there are two types of negative controls, one is a
negative reagent control and one is a tissue that is known negative. A lot of
time, we tend to focus on the negative reagent control and forget about the
negative tissue control. I know that a lot of smart folks out
This is what I put in my procedure shortly after Richard sent his email. There
wasn't a problem at inspection.
Following his announcement at NSH/ISH Forum in Windsor, CT, Dr. Richard
Carten sent an email to Histonet on July 17, 2102, regarding CAP guidelines for
negative controls. The

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
On Message 7 - Negative Controls
While it is true that if you run polymers, you no longer have to run a
negative reagent control, HOWEVER, you still must have a negative tissue
control, which to quote CAP: must show no staining of tissues known to
lack the antigen

Jennifer,
You can send your samples to us. We'd be happy to evaluate them for you. My
contact information is below.
I guess I should ask what kind of samples you have first though...!

If your samples happen to be of a non-human nature, let me suggest the

Blount Memorial Hospital in Maryville, TN will have a histology technician

Hello all,
I have been reading through the most recent revisions and want to see how
others are handling this question. The explanation states that it is for new
and existing assays and that if your validation does not meet current standards
that you must supplement and bring it into
From what I have read and understand you should be able to do a write up the
retroactive review based on the PT results. What we did here was bought a
microarray slide that came with the HER2/ER/PR results, ran them on our
machine, and compared our results to the ones that came with the slide.
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.
Does anyone know if there is a regulatory agency that requires high complexity
testing certification for histotechnologists.
