[Histonet] prostate bx containers

[Victoria Baker]

The sites are individual according to the specimen requisition form and on
the container.  It is in how the labeling is done.  Also when the
pathologist reads them out they will be reading by site/position.   I've
never used these containers but have received specimens in a single
container individually wrapped and identified where the pathologist read
them as they were.

I have yet to see one leak.

It looks like a petri dish and has 12 individual wells in it, each one
labelled with the location from the prostate.
