[Histonet] prostate orientation

[Akemi Allison]

Tim,

Helen Fedor has had a tremendous amount of experience on this subject  
since she is the SPORE lab manager for Johns Hopkins.  Johns Hopkins  
is considered the go to facility for prostate technology.  I have  
CC'd Helen on the email communication.

Best Wishes for the Holidays
