[Histonet] IHC tests in house vs. sending out

[Sebree Linda A]

Steve, 

Our threshold is 12 tests/year for bringing on a new antibody in-house.  On the flip side, if ordering volumes fall below 12/year, we consider dropping the antibody.

Hi Histonet,
 
I am trying to control which IHC tests I run in our lab vs. which tests I send out for.  My pathologists are interested in some new tests but I am not sure how frequently they are going to be ordering them.  I'd rather do them in house if I can, but I don't want to be throwing my money away if they never order them...
 
Does anyone know of a good system for keeping track of this?
 
-Steve
