[Histonet] pathology intradepartmental consults

[Dishop, Megan]

Internal consults are in the range of 2-7% in our institution.  Some of these are due to mandated second review of all new malignancies.  

Retrospective review of cases by other pathologists, for example conferences/tumor board/etc, is higher, in the range of 10-14% of cases.
