I have never seen any pathologist I have worked for look at a block before asking for recuts.

Never seen this - but it sounds like a nifty little time-waster for all concerned.

I usually examine the paraffin block before ordering levels or other recuts - to make sure the block isn't exhausted or horrible. Am I the only pathologist who does this?
