[Histonet] cryosectioning biopsies

[Caleri, Kathleen]

Hello-In order to preserve scant tissue for future molecular testing, is anyone processing their (needle) biopsies using only frozen sections and subsequently storing the frozen specimens...and NOT paraffin processing them AT ALL?

There is society where none intrude, by the deep sea and in its roar:
  I love not Man the less...but Nature more."
