Good afternoon all,
     I was just curious about how your institutions handle GI biopsies, specifically how many slides you cut off the bat.  We presently cut 2 levels on each GI biopsy block, but I'm hearing that more and more places only cut 1 slide per GI biopsy block.  Please share what you are doing at your establishment.
                Thank you
