 I am considering the purchase of a microwave tissue processor for skin
punch, shave, and smaller skin biopsies with an onsite demo scheduled in a
week or two.  Do any of you have experience with the quality of these
devices in terms of H&E, routine special stains, and immunohistochemical
stains in the field of dermatopathology?  I am looking at the Shandon
TissueWave 2.
