Specimen Collection and Handling

2011
Cytology is often performed in the investigation of patients with suspected infection. This is because cytology provides a safe, rapid, and cost-effective means to diagnose many infections, allowing correct management to be instituted. Moreover, cytology permits appropriate ancillary investigations to be undertaken either at the time of specimen ...

Pathology Specimen: Handling Techniques

2019
This chapter covers the handling of surgical ophthalmic pathology specimens in theatre and in the pathology laboratory. The handling of the specimens in theatre covers fresh tissue handling for frozen sections, which fixatives are required for the various specimens, orientation of specimens, and how to communicate clearly with pathology colleagues by ...

Handling and Pathology Reporting of Renal Tumor Specimens

European Urology, 2004
The gold standard in the treatment of renal tumors is radical or partial nephrectomy. The surgical specimen handling is important since the pathologic features result in clinico-pathologic knowledge that determines prognosis, additional treatment and scientific studies.

Handling of Surgical Specimen

2019
Generally, laboratorial processes are subdivided into three sequential stages: pre-analysis (encompassing the collection, transport, and specimen storage), analytic (laboratory processing itself), and post-analysis (encompassing the interpretation of the results and the expert’s opinion).

Handling and Pathology Reporting of Adrenal Gland Specimens

European Urology, 2004
Proper treatment of resection specimens by the urologist and pathologist is critical in accurately reporting tumors and tumor-like nodules of the adrenal gland. Clinically inapparent adrenal masses are discovered, with increasing frequency, in the course of diagnostic testing or treatment for conditions that are not related to adrenal diseases.

Handling and Pathology Reporting of Radical Prostatectomy Specimens

European Urology, 2003
Proper examination of radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens by the pathologists is critical in accurately determining the prediction of patient outcome. The pathology report should include relevant clinical information as well as provide prognostically useful data derived from the evaluation of the RP specimen.

Specimen Collection and Handling

2008
Preanalytical variables can alter the analysis of blood-derived samples. Prior to the analysis of a blood sample, multiple steps are necessary to generate the desired specimen. The choice of blood specimens, its collection, handling, processing, and storage are important aspects since these characteristics can have a tremendous impact on the results of

Optimal Handling of Bone Tumor Specimens

2014
The diagnosis of bone tumors is challenging and depends on optimal processing of specimens as well as integration of radiographic and clinical information. The correct diagnosis will often require ancillary techniques such as immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry and molecular or cytogenetic analysis.

Collection and Handling of Blood Specimens for Peptidomics

2011
Pre-analytical variables can alter the analysis of blood-derived samples. In particular sample collection and specimen preparation can alter the validity of results obtained by modern multiplex assays (e.g., LC-MS). Low-molecular-weight proteins (peptides) as products of proteolytic cleavage events exhibit a close connection to protease activity ...

Fixation and specimen handling

2017
This chapter investigates the way in which biopsies and resections are first handled in the laboratory. Once specimens arrive in the laboratory, they follow a process to the point of diagnosis. The process for most specimens remains the same until the first slide has been viewed for diagnosis.
