RE: Clear Cell Neoplasms from Different Organ of Origins

in STEMGeeks2 years ago

Now imagine receiving a slide looking at these features and then no one tells you the origin of the specimen?

I know that all too well. I get specimens labeled "swabs" for sources here and there. The floor seems to have trouble understanding the source affects the diagnosis greatly when we recover organisms.

Ikr? sometimes we receive pieces of flesh or aspirate smears where it takes hours to days worth of delay just to get in contact with the folks/institution that sent it. This tiny detail really grinds my gears as I have to go through different people just to search for the one that sent the specimen in the lab for reference.
