Our pathology department is about to receive its first heart (endomyocardial) 
biopsy - being done to look for amyloid, not a transplant -

What protocol do you all have for these specimens? One service I spoke with 
does two H & E, trichrome, iron, and amyloid - on formalin fixed tissue.

What additionally is needed for transplant heart biopsy specimens?
