That sounds really cool! I’ve done almost a decade of mouse/research histo so I’m used to full organ systems and embryos, I’m just getting used to human biopsies but its mostly the same idea. I’m really into that stuff! The only experience we have near the OR would be quick TAT frozens (Moh’s) or bone marrow aspirates, our job is to make the crush or touch preps and make sure the slides are good (we also do blood, serum and body fluids for chem or heme). Then we do some analysis and send it off to a pathologist if we see something funky. Thanks for educating me on all this it sounds very interesting! I bet my fiance has a lot more interaction with you guys, she’s a perfusionist and monitors the heart-lung machine during surgeries and ECMO.
