[Histonet] Mohs information

[Instrumedics]

Many Mohs laboratories use the Gentle Jane for snap freezing the skin specimen. The tissue is flat with the margins in the same plane and at the surface of the blockface. Snap-freezing with a heat extractor chilled in liquid nitrogen provides a very cold temperature with good thermal exchange. The ice crystal growth is minimized and the morphology is preserved .
