Subject: [Histonet] PROSTATE BIOSIES



I am looking for any suggestions when it  comes to processing prostate
biopsies. The pathologist have going back and forth with processing these
biopsies using a typical biopsy program on the tissue processors and using a
routine process which is used for processing most tissue specimens. Everyone
I have talked with about this processes all prostate biopsies using a biopsy
program, about 5-6 hours in the tissue processor. Any processing or staining
tips anyone could give me about prostate biopsies would be greatly
appreciated.
