Re: [Histonet] Tissue processor validation
Get your gross lab to provide you with samples representative of what you normally process and the same for tissue you use for internally procured special stain controls (kidney, lung, etc) Process as usual and cut and perform specials If they work: done.

[Histonet] Tissue Processor Validation Procedure
Hello Allison, When we purchased a new processor, I chose tissue specimens representative of what we normally see in our lab (surgical/biopsy and necropsy tissues) from cases which had been signed out within the previous 48-72 hours. I then ran parallel samples on both processors (same protocols, run the same day, fresh reagents in both processors) and then set up a grading scale for the pathologists to do a blind comparison. After that, I did a (brief) statistical analysis to determine if there was any significant difference between slides from the two processors. For IHC (we are a small lab with a short IHC menu currently), I ran parallel Vimentin and Multicytokeratin on the same blocks as used for the HE and did a comparison just as for the HE slides. I presented the final data to my chief pathologist who then signed off on the validation. I keep a copy of the validation with my equipment records. I hope this helps.

You are going to have to revalidate IHC and FISH with new processing. How much might depend on if you are significantly changing instrumentation/technology, or just getting a new instrument of the same type. I usually don't do a full, as new assay validation, but the amount needed just to show that the processing change has not affected the test results. If there are issues that appear with that, you might have to do a complete revalidation.
