\"Risk<\/a>Tissue contamination in the anatomic pathology lab has long been accepted as a part of the working environment. While laboratories strive to reduce contamination as much as possible, it has been viewed more as an inconvenience than as a serious issue.<\/p>

But that view is changing. As this white paper demonstrates, the risk of misinterpretation may be greater than most pathologists currently realize, especially in certain tissue types. Also, this paper illuminates a source of significant contamination that has largely been overlooked—staining baths.<\/p>

Patient safety demands that laboratories take every precaution against misinterpretation. But even in instances where the risk of misinterpretation is unlikely, loss of productivity as a result of contamination is a serious issue.<\/p>

As the author of this white paper notes, determining if an artifact on a slide is a contaminant or patient tissue can require minutes, or even hours, of extra time in analysis. With a critical shortage of pathologists, productivity is an issue that laboratories cannot ignore.  With the average age of pathologists over 50, this shortage will grow more critical as baby boomers retire.<\/p>
