Abstract:
The "RAPID SECTION", a very simple, quick and also quite accurate method in reaching an immediate tissue diagnosis in the operating room and post-mortem examination has been used exclusively by pathologists with a combined experience of 40 years at this hospital. The procedure is described briefly and the advantages, limitations and a study for the accuracy of the method are discussed. The method would be particularly useful to the practicing pathologist in a community hospital setting with limited monetary and personnel resources as was our experience in the past 30 years.
