Subject: [Histonet] Frozen section

We need to make a change in the way we presently account for our frozen
section while doing them.  Presently we receive the requisition with the
first specimen, then pathology is responsible to account for any
subsequent specimens.  The problem is that the subsequent specimens are
typically labeled poorly, and we are trying very hard to conform to the
CAP guidelines. So ... when the specimens are not labeled in detail, it
requires follow up calls to gain the proper information.  I would like
to know how other facilities are handling multiple frozen sections. 

Thanks 

Gary
