[Histonet] Peripheral smear review

[Robert Richmond]

Gary Martin, I'd be very interested in knowing what response you get
to your presentation. I'm certainly available by e-mail if anybody
wants to know more.

Remember when you copy my note to include the comment about
coverslipping which I posted later.

I'd add further: The pathologist's task in reviewing the slides is to
correlate the patient's history, the microscopic appearance of the
blood smear, and the blood count data, in order to produce a
consultation report useful to the attending physician in caring for
the patient.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my request for information
concerning peripheral smear review. It seems that most respondents are
doing this the way we presently do. I have to say that I agree totally
with Dr. Richmond's method. I will be presenting the idea that these
slides are "consults" not just a tech issue.
Many thanks
