[Histonet] levels on biopsies

[Gudrun Lang]

We cut four levels (one section - trimming - next section etc.) on one
slide. For prostata, mamma, kidney needle-biopsies we have special
procedures to provide material for immunhistochemistry.

We have a lot of biopsy samples.    We have always cut 3 levels.   But,
in an effort to save time and money (supplies), I would like to cut 2
levels.    What I want to know is how many levels everyone cuts on their
biopsies?    Does anyone just cut 2 levels?
Thanks!
