[Histonet] second patient identifier on tissue cassette

[Piero Nelva]

Before we had our cassette labeller, we wrote the first three letters only 
of the surname on the side.  Pretty awkward, but we had no other option.

How are you small hospitals dealing with a second patient identifier on the 
tissue cassette if you do not have a cassette printer/labeler?  Is there an 
easier way then hand writing patient name on cassette?
