[Histonet] Bone Marrow Trephine Cases

Over the past several years we have had some questions by our hematopathologists regarding the quality of the trephine blocks. The biggest concern has been that the sections seem to have a fragmented appearance which we have determined in the past to be areas where the lipid cell borders brea

[Histonet] IHC Validation

Does anyone have a sample IHC Validation worksheet that they used in their lab for review. I know that the requirements have changed since our last inspection. I want to make sure that I am including all of the criteria, and would like to see how other labs are documenting this process. Leslie G

RE: [Histonet] RE: Storage of HER2 neu control slides

Just started using it ( currently doing validation & correlation), so maybe will be issues at some later time. I just noticed the "overnight" in the IFU file from their website when I was putting the SOP together. I have to be honest, that I did my standard preparation so far and it worked great

RE: [Histonet] RE: Storage of HER2 neu control slides

[Histonet] RE: Storage of HER2 neu control slides

We keep all of our positive control slides at RT. The breast predictive marker slides often sit for a few weeks (after cutting) before being used. I think everyone's situation will be different due to laboratory humidity, tissue fixation, and tissue processing which removes the water from the
