[Histonet] Control & pt on same slide

[Sebree Linda A]

Histonetters,

As a cost savings measure, we are considering doing away with using "red
box" control slides.  We would still like to put our control tissue on
the same slide as our patient tissue.  These are my questions:  are
people doing this and if so are you putting the control tissue on the
top or bottom of the slide and how do you indicate which tissue is
patient and which is control?  Thanks for your responses.
