[Histonet] DEEPER REQUESTS

[Webb, Dorothy L]

Does anyone know if there is an average percentage that a histology lab should expect in deeper/recut requests?  I am trying to establish if our pathologists order more than the "norm" or if I have a quality issue unfolding!!

Also, do most labs use 2 controls for their "pneumo" staining, a routine fungus and a pneumo carnii positive?

Thanks ahead of time!
