[Histonet] fine needle aspirates assisting

[Kirbiš Srebotnik Irena]

our cytopathologists performs FNAB 2 per day, normal team have cytopathologist, nurse (taking care for the patients, cleaning the site for procedure, giving cytopathologist syringe with the needle and so on)and technicians taking care for proper labelling of smears and the requisition form, writing down sample special properties and suspending leftovers in cell medium for ancillary dg. method. We cannot imagine that technicians wouldn't participate and help in FNAB office

Maybe someone can give me some advice....at our hospital..when there is a fine needle procedure the histotechs are asked to come down with a tray and make the slides....spray them ...etc.  Is this normal procedure??  Any help will  be appreciated.  Thank you!!
