hi everyone, our lab has a question about prostate needle biopsies. the pa's submit two cores per block and we embed them with a tamper so they are on the same level. we do three levels on each block. is there a protocol as to how many microns should be between each level? sometimes the tissue is so thin that there is nothing left in the block for recuts or ihc. we would like to have each tech cut with the same method so that there will be greater consistency. thanks so much everybody. paula
