[Histonet] ALK Positive lung slides

[Johns, Jill]

Does anybody have any lung tissue slides that are known to be positive for the ALK gene rearrangement or know of a source to obtain them? We are trying to validate this FISH assay are having a very difficult time finding any positive specimens (we have Abbott's positive control slides, but they do not look like "real" tissue specimens)....Thanks!!
