[Histonet] tonsils

[histotech <@t> imagesbyhopper.com]

We submit all tonsils for processing.  I am not sure if the charge is an
88302 or 88304.  If it makes a difference, I could take a moment to get the
actual charge.

I have seen malignancy in tonsils that did not show a 5 cm difference in the
gross size.  I would be very concerned about missing a significant lesion
using that criterion.
