Great Question. No system can eliminate errors, but using a good system with
standard process will and has proven eliminated errors. I used the Vantage
System in my lab and the only errors we had in several years (about 1 to 2 per
year) occurred when staff were not following standard work an

Enjoy retirement Sara, I'm loving it and have been for almost a year now.
Still love and am very interested in Histology. I think it stays in the blood
forever. I'm doing a little consulting but mostly enjoying my grandson and
being home. Never a boring minute, I'm as busy as I ever was,

I think the Ventana XT is the best instrument for adding slides as you go which
makes it perfect for a LEAN lab. This will reduce your TAT.The instrument is
so easy to use it is virtually impossible to mess up with it's bar coding and
visual control. Very user friendly.

We used Ventana Vantage in my lab and loved everything about it. It is so much
more than just a labeling system. Check it out. It is pricy but worth every
penny in what you will gain in productivity and error reduction.

Hi Dana,
We used the slide labels for the Vantage system without any problems for
several years. We labeled at the cutting station and NEVER had a label wash
off or smear in about three years. I highly recommend it. You will also see a
huge gain in productivity elimination double labeling.

A great way to do this is by using the results of the Histo QIP from CAP and
the NSH. If you participate you get wonderful study and competency materials
to use for routine H&E's special stains and IHC.

Yes, Call your Ventana rep. Vantage is able to track courier pick-ups and
record what slides are sent, etc.

Shane,
It depends on the prep you use. If it is a smear it should be 88104, if a thin
prep 88312.

Hello everyone,After being home from the NSH for a few weeks I have been
pondering an issue that I think bears discussion on the histonet.There have
been several papers published regarding "floaters" and the amount determined to
come from traditional staining buckets. There was also a poster p

for that period for several reasons. One is that it may put you in a bad
position regarding legal cases. You could be asked why you don't follow the
most strict standard and be expected to explain why. The second i
