We have several tissue blocks with cells that have shrunken. The pathologist
called them shrink o cytes. The tissue affected is mostly small gastric
polyps. This sounds like a dehydration issue. Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

You are right, it is most likely a dehydration issue.
Try to start with 70EthOL and increase gradually until 100EthOL
