[Histonet] GROSSING

[Marybeth Kaulahao]

Does anyone out there assist the pathologist during gross? We are in a bit of a fix over here. We did with our pathologist for years. She has retired. 2 guys took her place and one needs us to put the lids on the cassettes...because it makes gross go much faster for him. it is making the days when he does gross very long for us. The other pathologist doesn't need any one to stay with him. We are about a 7000 case /year 85-120 cassettes/ day lab. my lab manager has asked me to ask other labs what they do. Anyone??
thanks
