Step 3

Prepare the specimen for submission

Detailed pathology instructions are provided with the specimen box. While the Exact Sciences laboratory can accept tumour blocks and unstained slides, blocks are preferred due to the frequent requirement of manual microdissection of the specimen consistent with clinical trial experience.
