This may be somewhat of a mute point as many of the fluorescent markers
fade over time, sometimes over very short times. This is especially true
when exposed to viewing illumination for some time. It also depends on
the storage conditions, are these slides frozen, paraffin, what mountant
if any are they in and what conditions of storage?
It would be best if a record is required to photograph the image on
which the diagnosis is made and store this image. I realize that for
many labs this may not be a possibility.

Can someone  answer a question regarding slide retention for me? How
long to labs keep their immunofluorescence slides?
