[Histonet] Any experience with the Mohs "cryo embedder"

[Kim Tournear]

I've done both of those methods. I used the cyro embedder at a mohs lab here for 2 yrs. It's the next best thing to sliced bread and is great for getting those epi's down. I will get the vendor info and cat # and post it on the net today. The last one I bought cost appx $1600.00 but was well worth it when I had to start training new tech from within the office.

Does anyone else freeze the tissue to a glass slide to get it embedded
flat?  That's how I've been show and it seems to work well.

I've used plastic embedding molds too, but they don't always give me a
flat
surface.
