That is due to the fact that most pathologists don't due grossing beyond
their Pathology Internship. Every path that I know has a rare exposure
to formalin. It's the PA's, dieners and techs that are exposed.  Just my
2 cents no flaming please I am sensitive. :)

"To date there has been no information published to suggest that
pathologists' causes of death are different from those of other American
physicians."

Over here (UK) pathologists have the second highest suicide rate. This
suggests that they haven't had time to get the long term effects of
formalin:-)

Terry - equally pickled.


Terry was it the formalin that caused you to be so 'pickled' or another
type of fixative? Who has the highest suicide rate? I don't actually
know of any Pathologists that has committed suicide, only a few whose
suicide was professional.
