Thank you to everyone who sent a template.  This is very helpful.  I do
need clarfication on the 10 cases that are required for validation.  Do you
include the 10 cases on this same form, or do you have something separate
for that?  These look ideal for optimization.  From what I have read
online, 10 cases need to be run after optimization has been completed.
When validating these 10 cases, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and
reproducibility need to be monitored.  Are all of you using separate form
to capture this data and approval from the Pathologists?  Maybe I am going
overboard, but I want to make sure that I have everything covered.  We are
bringing a new platform into our lab in 2 weeks, and I want to have
everything ready to go.
