Hi C.A.,
I don't have the HT or HTL, but from my college teaching experience in histology and histotechniques, I just wanted to caution you that
memoriz=g is not what you should be doing. You need to understand
concepts, so th= when you need to troubleshoot problems you will be
able to think through=ings, rule some things out, and make sense of
the situation. I see this =l the time with my students, they forget
things they memorize, but then t=y finally understand things and
can figure things out. One of the new tea=ing tools is having
students prepare "concept maps," to see the=lationships of topics
and terms, and these linkages will help you in the=ng run. For
histology examples, see:
[13]http://www.biologycorner.com/anatomy/tissues/tissue_conce pt_map_samples.html
I don't know of any concept maps for his=technology on the web, but
I am going to add this to my course next year! Esther

Hi Sarah,
Joyce is correct, under medicare changes in patho=gy coding, you
can not bill for each of the blocks of the same antibody a pplications, only one charge per specific antibody mentioned in the
patholo= report is allowable. Medicare immuno billing is per
"specimen"=ly for each specific antibody used, example if you used
s100 for the sam=pecimen (wide melanoma excision)on 15 different
blocks, under medicare y= can only bill one GO461, yes- not fair
when the need is appropriate,
I must voice my opinio)- this probably will lower some of the over utilization and inappropriate billing practices that many of us have
seen = the immunohistochemistry world and the labs that have
capitalized on the=actice, the problem with the lower
reimbursements and change in medicare=ding hurts many of our labs
who have used the utilization of immunohisto=emistry appropriately.
However, "under current 2014&=ot; CPT coding on non medicare can
you bill for the additional work per b=ck using the 88342 and 88343
cpt code, I am sure moving forward we are go=g to continue to see
adjustments to the pathology coding processes!

Hi all,
I've been having problems with cryosectioning fatty tissue for a lo ng time now. The section leaves a hole in the middle. I know this is
probab= a much discussed topic, but I've tried a lot of strategies
with no luck.=e tissue is of mouse origin and has micro-lesions
buried inside fat. So =e fat needs to be cut in order to get to the
lesion. I started with a tem=rature of -17C and tried upto -25C and
also at -50C; didn't work at any o=hese temperatures. I tried
rubbing the block, blade and anti-roll plate =th dry ice-again,no
luck.
I rapid-freeze the tissue with OCT = LN2 and then store the block
at -80C. Could I try sectioning the block d=ectly from -80C? (never
done that).
Any other suggestions on =w to tackle this?
Any advice is much appreciated!!

Hi Laurie,
=, the tissue hasn't been fixed before freezing. My prof doesn't
prefer th=ethod, but if nothing else works, we might give it a
try.
An=uggested protocols for fixation?
Thanks!
Dakshna

Subject: [Histonet] HELP- Cryo=ctioning FAT!
Hi all,
I've been having problems wit=ryosectioning fatty tissue for a
long time now. The section leaves a hol=n the middle. I know this
is probably a much discussed topic, but I've t=ed a lot of
strategies with no luck. The tissue is of mouse origin and ha=
micro-lesions buried inside fat. So the fat needs to be cut in order
to g= to the lesion. I started with a temperature of -17C and tried
upto -25C =d also at -50C; didn't work at any of these
temperatures. I tried rubbing=e block, blade and anti-roll plate
with dry ice-again,no luck.
I rapid-freeze the tissue with OCT in LN2 and then store the block at
-8
. Could I try sectioning the block directly from -80C? (never
done that). Any other suggestions on how to tackle this?
Any ad=ce is much appreciated!!
Thanks,
Dakshna
