Hello Netters,
What are the protocols used for Sentinel Node sectioning in the histology 
labs?  We initially cut three H&E levels of the tagged lymph node(s) and 
save a slide for possible IHC staining.  If the inital levels are negative 
for tumor seven additional levels are cut with additional slides from these 
levels saved for possible IHC staining.  What additional testing is 
performed in your labs?
Thanks in advance,
