Are you freezing muscle? If so, for our muscle biopsies we use OCT
to adhere the base of the tissue to a piece of cork (which is frozen in

We require our OR to submit a separate requisition with each container.
The specimen site is listed on each requisition. This applies to all
specimens (not just frozens).
In addition, frozens (and other intra operative consultations such as
gross only or touch prep) must also have a frozen
