It won't be long before UK Surgeons will have to take consent for histology
to be performed (research and diagnostic) from patients prior to operation. I
suspect the days when we foraged for immuno and any other controls from the
the "throw out" are about to end. Informed consent and the desire of the
Public to have control over their bodies will see to this.
