[Histonet] Special stains cost per slide

[Gayle Callis]

Check out Advance magazine for an article by Rene Buessa on histology 
laboratory cost evaluations (December, 2006 issue?)  He should have insight 
on how this is calculated (a formula) or information on where to find what 
you are looking for.  Advance is available on internet and free.  If he is 
looking in, he will address your question.

Also, check out the Archive, this has been discussed before on Histonet.
