[Histonet] RE: Instrument Verification

[Terri Braud]

I just received my midcycle CAP and for cryostat validation, we are
planning to cut and stain a piece of frozen tonsil and have the path
sign off on it. For the tissue processors, we will run a one minute test
program. I hope this will fly.  Is it just me, or is CAP insanely out of
control with new or modified regulations and policies for AP?

Could anyone tell me how you are handling the new CAP ANP.23045 question
on function and verification of equipment regarding a cryostat.
