Subject: [Histonet] Gold seed implants
A pathologist just asked me how to easily find "gold seed" implants out of a chest wall mass the size of a big steak. After cutting through the tissue and only finding one, he suggested a strong acid to dissolve all the tissue. Oncology told me you can see it under a fluoroscope, but still, the pathologist would have to dissect them out. Maybe a funeral home incinerator...ha! Any ideas?
