[Histonet] Microwave Tissue Processors

[Willis, Donna]

Joyce,
The Pathos will allow you to do all that your are interested in doing on
biopsy samples and on tissue cut up to 5mm thick.  I have one in my lab.
You can batch up to 210 cassettes. I have not worked with the Sakura
unit but I know that the thickness of the samples on the unit are
limited and batch volumes are smaller.

Hi All,
My lab director is interested in purchasing a processor which will 
allow us to process batches of cases throughout the day, and serve as a 
backup to our two VIPs.
I would greatly appreciate knowing what experiences you all have had 
with the various microwave processors available. I have particular 
interest in the Pathos from Milestone since it is automated, but I am 
open to all possibilities.

Thanks,
Joyce Friedland
