Fresh tissue

The most common indication for submission of a fresh tissue sample (i.e. without the usual formalin or any other fixative) is rapid frozen section diagnosis, usually done intraoperatively . Other indications are microbiological assessment, electron microscopy , chemical analyses (e.g. quantification of iron in the tissue), research work, tissue banking and some types of molecular pathological analysis.
