Specimen  

Patient Data

The initial pathology report, full clinical data, laboratory and radiological findings are mandatory to reach the proper diagnosis.

Specimen Collection and Transport Instructions

The specimens required are formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue blocks. If the block cannot be sent, send tissue sections mounted on positive charged slides in addition to the corresponding H&E stained slides. Paraffin blocks and slides must be adequately protected to prevent melting in the summer months by shipping blocks and/or slides in cooled containers.

Turnaround Time
Test results are generally supplied within 48-72 hours from receipt of sample. Hard copy results are supplied by fax; emails results are available upon request.
Schedule
Saturday-Thursday from 9h-18 h
