[Histonet] Avoiding bilaterality mistakes
From: | "Stephen Peters M.D." |
After our recent near miss on a bilateral breast case ( see fridays post :What
are peoples feelings on pre labling slides?) we will be using different colored
cassettes and matching slides for each side. I got this idea from Joyce Weems who told me she uses colored agar markers for laterality ( Thanks Joyce). This should
help to prevent confusion at the grossing, cutting and reading stages. Thanks to all
who answered my first post. I thought I would share what I hope is a good solution.
