The histology/cytology laboratory is open Monday – Friday from 8am until 5.30pm, excluding public holidays. Outside these hours relevant personnel are on call for dealing with urgent cardio-thoracic transplant biopsies. Notice needs to be given to the Consultant Histopathologist and the Biomedical Scientist of the intention to perform a biopsy and to the Biomedical Scientist when the specimen is dispatched for transport to pathology who is contactable through switch and ask for the cardio-thoracic Biomedical Scientist on call.
The Mortuary is open from 8.30am until 4pm and Anatomical Pathology Technicians operate a limited on-call service. They can be contacted via the duty manager in the first instance.
