[Histonet] Cellient for cell block preparation

[Cartun, Richard]

Question - What has been your experience with  Hologic's Cellient instrument for preparing cell block specimens?  I understand that it is very good for pauci-cellular specimens.  However, I am concerned about using these preparations for immunohistochemical and DNA/RNA testing.  Thank you!

Richard
