[Histonet] prostate needle biopsies

From:"Jennifer Englin"

We usually receive our needle biopsies in  2 contaners, right and left.  I was wondering how many cassettes they are submitted in.  For example 2 needles per cassette, five per cassette, etc...   Also for those of you taking sections for possible IP's.  We routinely cut five levels, 1,3,&5 for H&E and 2 & 4 for IP's.  Do some of you cut seven???
Any help would be appreciated.
