'''Tissue processing''' is a key component of the histologic examination. This article covers it superficially. It is something a pathologist should have a rudimentary understanding of.

==What happens to the tissue==
In an ideal world the pathologist gets the tissue fresh and divides it up in the following way:<ref>PST. 14 February 2011.</ref>
#Formulin.
#Electron microscopy.
#Molecular genetics.
#Cytogenetics.
#Flow cytometery.
#Tissue banks - institutional, regional, national, international.
#Tissue culture.

==Tissue processing==
Basic process:
#Fixation -- formulin
#Embedding -- replace water (in the tissue) with (paraffin) wax - using a series of alcohols.
#Sectioning -- cut with microtome ~ 3-10 micrometers thick, routinue is usu. 6-8 micrometers.<ref>URL: [http://library.med.utah.edu/WebPath/HISTHTML/HISTOTCH/HISTOTCH.html http://library.med.utah.edu/WebPath/HISTHTML/HISTOTCH/HISTOTCH.html]. Accessed on: 7 March 2011.</ref>
