We cut 2 levels with 3 sections on each slide for GI's.    We cut 3
levels on skin and gyns.

I am inquiring what the "standard" is for the number of GI biopsy
sections that are routinely put on slides for review. We currently cut
two slides with two levels on each slide.  The total number of sections
is between 6-8 sections on each slide.

Thanks,
