[Histonet] Histology's contribution to Forensic Science<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV>I'm not currently working in histology so that I can complete a Master's
degree but have volunteered to give a presentation at the next Washington
State Histology meeting in May. The tentative title of the presentation is
"The role of the histotech in death investigations." I parlayed my histology
training into morgue work and then death scene investigations. I am now a
Diplomat with the American Board of Medicolegal Death Investigation.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I know that there are very few histotechs working solely for a coroner or
medical examiner. When I was a histology intern at Harborview Medical Center,
they let me learn to cut on the blocks from medical examiner cases because
they were less important than the clinical stuff. I would love to hear from
histotechs who cut medical examiner/coroner blocks and who have some
suggestions on what I should include in my talk. Any suprising findings due to
routine histology? Any cases that benefited from the specialized knowledge of
a histotech? Perhaps Congo Red cracked the case? Has the experience from CAP
inspections helped in gaining NAME accreditation? (National Association of
Medical Examiners) Any suggestions would be really appreciated, even if you
don't have forensic experience to draw on.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks so much, Sandra Ellis</DIV>
