Deeper levels and extra blocks

Deeper levels and extra blocks

The pathologist may request ‘deeper levels’, whereby the BMS cuts further into the para ffi n block to obtain further sections that may provide more information. For example, deeper levels of an atypical but non-invasive epithelial lesion might show foci of invasion, allowing a definite diagnosis of carcinoma.
