Abstract: A tissue tray for collecting and organizing tissue biopsy samples as they are analyzed and prepared for histological analysis and other analyses. A tissue tray includes an upper surface and a bottom surface, at least one compartment formed in the upper surface of the tray configured to receive tissue and having one or more fluid conduits passing between openings in the upper and bottom surfaces, and at least one marker configured to indicate the orientation of the tray such that the tray is in the same orientation during radiological analysis and pathological analysis. Methods for fabricating the tray and methods for using the tray are also disclosed herein.
