[Histonet] H&E quality check

[Weems, Joyce]

We do 1 or 2 per full tray - recording wrinkles, folds, poor staining,
etc. to get an approximate 10% reviewed.

Thanks for all of the replies. I guess I need to rephrase my question.
I'm wondering how many slides are reviewed daily under the scope for
cutting artifacts, incomplete margins, etc. Where I worked before, we
checked 10% of the slides under the scope before sending them on to the
Pathologists. Do other labs do this?

Everywhere I have worked there was a liver control slide run daily for
Q.C. The techs checked the staining quality before beginning staining
for the day. The slide was dated and documented in the log book.

Just curious as to how other hospital labs quality check their H&E
slides? 
Do most review a percentage microscopically?
