Início • Knowledge Pathway • Tissue Processing Tissue Processing Tissue processing consists of dehydration, clearing, and infiltration. Here, experts share their recommendations for properly executing these steps. Image An Introduction to Specimen Processing Geoffrey Rolls, BAppSc, FAIMS "Tissue processing” describes the steps required to take animal or human tissue from fixation to the state where it is completely infiltrated with a suitable histological wax and can be embedded ready for section cutting on the microtome. Learn More Image Tips and Tricks to Better Histology: Influencing Tissue Processing and Preparation Fiona Tarbet, B.A.Sc, Leica Biosystems In this webinar, Fiona Tarbet will investigate some of the effects of poor technique on section and stain quality and identify ways of producing better results. Watch the webinar Image Troubleshooting & Reprocessing Difficult Paraffin Blocks Geoffrey Rolls, BAppSc, FAIMS From time to time, in all histopathology laboratories, paraffin blocks will be encountered that are difficult or even impossible to section. Learn More Image Processing Fatty Specimens Andrew Lisowski, M.S., HTL (ASCP) Adam Walter, CSSMBB, CLA, BS One of the most critical steps in histology is fixation, especially when it comes to fatty tissue.
