-----Original Message----- From: histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu [mailto:histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu] On Behalf Of Horn, Hazel V Sent: Thursday, October 24, 2013 2:45 PM To: histonet (histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu) Subject: [Histonet] freezing spray Our hospital has not allowed freezing spray to be used in the frozen section lab for many years. We now have a new group of doctors who want to use the spray. The docs think the frozen sections take too long to freeze. Yet, they meet the frozen section TAT for more than 98% of our cases. I think it's worth not using it for the one case where no one suspects TB but the patient will be positive. Do you allow freezing spray in your frozen section lab?
