[Histonet] Leica Peloris versus Microwave Processing

[Vickroy, Jim]

We are thinking about purchasing a new tissue processor.  We have looked extensively into microwave tissue processors instead of the conventional tissue processors we are all used to.
Recently two of my techs came back from a symposium and brought me literature on the Leica Peloris.   The brochure makes some statements that it is faster than microwave processing.  Has anyone used this processor and what has been your impression?   Also do you have any opinion on how it matches up with microwave processors such as the Sakura Tissue Tek Express or the microwave processor by Milestone?

Any input would be appreciated.  Thanks
