[Histonet] tissue processor

[Deltour, Douglas D. (HM2)]

I can tell you first hand that the Vision Biosystem processor is ... not
optimal. The processor was not set-up correctly and when it was breaking
down the tech-support was horrible. If you were getting error codes on every
run and tech support said "just ignore them"... what would you do?

I don't have any recent experience with new processors, but have heard from
a trusted colleague good things about the Vision Biosystem processor. It is
a conventional processor, but has quicker TAT. I don't believe this
colleague is on histonet, so thought I'd mention it.
