  • Generally, use inking for resection margins where cancer radicality is important.Template:Ink note
  • Preferably photograph or make a drawing where slices have been taken.[1]
  • Remove any surgical stitches from samples before microtomy.
  • At least for larger samples, consider looking for medical imaging or biopsy reports in order to better guide the process.[2]
