[Histonet] slide id

[Cooper, Brian]

Thanks Tim.  I think we're going the AB&T route as well with our next CoPath upgrade.  We went to Ventana last year for their 360 tour, and saw all that Vantage has to offer.  One of my good friends is a Vantage Implementation Manager, so I'm sure our decision to go with AB&T  will drive him batty!  

Happy Friday!!!  

Brian

Brian, we use Copath AB&T, not Vantage, but the principle is the same. We use the old non-barcoded system for older block/slide sendouts. There is no way to barcode old blocks, unless you want to enter it as a consult, and that entails giving it a new number, which would just confuse things.

It will take a few years but eventually we'll be sending out mostly barcoded items. This is just one of the things you have to work with when changing over to something new.

How does Vantage work with blocks and slides that were in your institution prior to the implementation of Vantage?  Suppose you needed to send materials to another institution for further testing?  Do you generate new barcoded labels and affix them to the materials prior to sending them out (for tracking purposes)? 

Thanks, 

Brian

Vantage works great. We use it to track all blocks and slides as they move in and out of the core lab and in and out of archive. You must bar code and make a decision on cassette printers. Techs scan their own bar code to log on the system.
