Re: [Histonet] gross photography
Hi, We use MakroPath from Milestone in a routine histolab. The camera is mounted on the top oft he grossing-station, with an integrated PC+monitor and pedals for zooming and taking photos. Within this system you can mark the pictures, draw something, measure something ... In comparison to the older method with digital-camera, manual zoom etc. it is very conveniant. Picture quality is high. Gudrun -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Julio Benavides Silván via Histonet [mailto:histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu] Gesendet: Dienstag, 28.

Re: [Histonet] gross photography
We have used handheld digital cameras for our research in sheep in Galveston. For autopsies at the Shriners hospital, we use handheld cameras, one operated by a professional photographer, and also an old copy stand with hot lights and a backlight and a Sony digital camera with a macro lens on an alpha lens mount adapter, which works pretty well. The new macro photography in the UTMB autopsy service is great -- you enter the case number and put the specimen on the stand, and the system handles focus, exposure and record keeping and provides excellent pictures.

Re: [Histonet] Gross photography/macrophotography
Most digital cameras from the well-known manufacturers (Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Olympus) will be fine for gross photography. An single lens reflex (SLR) type of camera with interchangable lenses is ideal but I suggest NOT buying the zoom lens in a kit but buy camera body and a macro lens that will allow close focusing. The macro lens should have a focal length of 90 mm or longer to allow for comfortable working distances. One example would be a Nikon D5000 and a 105 mm Micro Nikor lens. Instead of the Nikor lens a Tamron 90 mm lens is half as expensive and will give fine results. A digital SLR + macro lens will be over $1000. Even a small point and shoot camera will do the job. I photograph gross anatomy exams with a little Canon I can fit in my pocket. Do not be misled by the megapixel wars, more megapixels does not make a better camera. The lens and the processor are just as important. I'm sure there is a professional level camera store (not Best Buy) in Dallas that can help you make a decision.

RE: [Histonet] Gross Photography
As a Biomedical Scientist I agree with you totally. One of the weaknesses of Biomedical scientists performing the 'grossing' is that the original evidence at dissection is lost to the Pathologist (that is until that Time Biomedical Scientists carry out the interpretation). Taking digital photos at all stages of dissection retains the evidence for the reporting Pathologist. I did this for many years when dissecting samples for my Pathologist; saved drawing diagrams. I guess you'd agree that 80% of all interpretations could be carried out by a Biomedical Scientist (Histotech) once competency is attained and the envelope of responsibility is agreed.

Re: [Histonet] Gross Photography
In government facilities, we are now banned from using flash drives, memory sticks, and other portable devices because some knucklehead at some military installation downloaded a nasty worm that affected many military computers (glad I wasn't that person, probably digging latrines in Iraq or Afghanistan now). This puts us in a tough spot because I was able to shoot pictures in the grossing room. them emailing them to the sign out pathologist. Many times, the path I'm grossing for is out for one reason or another and it helped them see the specimen before I laid blade to specimen. Now, we have to wait for the path to come to the grossing area or put the specimen aside until they can come by.
