Microwaves: a revolution in histoprocessing.
BACKGROUND AND AIM Pathologists are under constant pressure for instant and reliable diagnosis. The manual procedures employed in private laboratories and institutional setup for histoprocessing and staining are laborious and intense. Thus, this study aims to evaluate and compare the microwave tissue processing and staining with the conventional methods which are in vogue. MATERIALS AND METHO...
متن کاملComparative evaluation of different histoprocessing methods
OBJECTIVES Tissue processing for years is carried out by the conventional method, which is a time-consuming technique resulting in 1-day delay in diagnosis. However, in this area of modernization and managed care, rapid diagnosis is increasingly desirable to fulfill the needs of clinicians. The objective of the present study was to compare and determine the positive impact on turnaround times o...
متن کاملStrategies for laboratory cost containment and for pathologist shortage: centralised pathology laboratories with microwave-stimulated histoprocessing and telepathology.
The imposition of laboratory cost containment, often from external forces, dictates the necessity to develop strategies to meet laboratory cost savings. In addition, the national and worldwide shortage of anatomical pathologists makes it imperative to examine our current practice and laboratory set-ups. Some of the strategies employed in other areas of pathology and laboratory medicine include ...
متن کاملComparison of Prostatic Tissue Processed by Microwave and Conventional Technique Using Morphometry
Background and Objectives:Rapid processing of histopathological specimens and decreased turnaround time is important to fulfill the needs of clinicians treating sick patients, so the present study was conducted to compare the time taken and quality of sections in processing of prostatic tissue by rapid microwave and conventional techniques using morphometry. Methods: Four to five mm thick p...
متن کاملFast track biopsy method: a rapid approach to preoperative diagnoses.
INTRODUCTION It is well known that the use of a microwave oven greatly reduces the time for histoprocessing. OBJECTIVE Apply the microwave-based histoprocessing method "Fast Track Biopsy" (FTB), previously described for breast needle-core biopsies, to samples of other organs. METHODS From 01/09/2008 to 31/12/2008, 125 normal and neoplastic tissue samples (thickness from 0.2 and 1.2 cm) were...
