[Histonet] Radioactive tissue

[Marshall, Kimberly]

Hello out there

 

Getting ready for our first CAP soon and notice they question the
handling of tissue that may contain radioactive material.  I am going to
talk to the x-ray folks but wanted some input from the Histo-net.  Such
as how long you need to keep it in the lead lined container?  Can histo
add formalin before putting it in the container?   Thanks in advance for
your input.

 

And thanks so much for all the folks that helped me with my Wright's
Giemsa issue.  It's a work on progress but feel I will get there to the
"Perfect" color someday.  Have a great weekend.

 

Kimberly
