[Histonet] Cassette labeling

[hymclab]

"A" For filing reasons.  When we file in the boxes on top of microtome they are right side up and for final filing in the plastic drawers writing is right side up.

Hi Histonetters,

At my hospital, we are having a discussion about how to label cassettes. I have worked at 2 hospitals, and they each do it a different way.  Our cassette labeller will print either way.

Could you please indicate which way you do it at your site, A or B.

     A......When the cassette is open and sitting on the bench facing you with the lid on the far side and the surface for writing on is closest to you,  the surgical number is upside down.

     B.....When the cassette is open and sitting on the bench facing you with the lid on the far side and the surface for writing on is closest to you,  the surgical number is right side up.

Thanks in advance.
