[Histonet] Validation of IHC

[Jason McGough]

Our lab is inquiring about how other labs are validating their IHC  
stains. We currently are processing specimens both in a microwave and  
conventional processors. Are labs validating every type of program on  
the conventional and microwave processors? (i.e. small biopsies vs.  
larger tissue samples)Or just microwave vs. conventional processing?  
Also how many blocks of each tissue control are you testing? Thanks in  
advance for your replies.
