ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for orienting, securing and analyzing a specimen comprises a base for receiving the specimen. A cover is receivable over the specimen and base, and an adjustable mechanism is provided for securing the cover to the base. The apparatus further comprises a mechanism, disposed on at least one of the base and cover, for identifying a discrete, localized area on the specimen. A method for securing and analyzing a specimen, wherein a radiation is used to analyze the specimen, comprises the steps of: placing the specimen on a base; securing a cover having radiation-evident coordinate indicia thereon over the specimen and the base so as to snugly engage the specimen between the cover and the base, the cover being formed from a material transparent to the radiation and comprising a plurality of openings adapted to receive a tool for cutting the specimen; irradiating the specimen so as to produce a diagnostic medium having the specimen irradiation results and the radiation-evident coordinate indicia thereon; identifying any medically suspect areas in the specimen via the coordinate indicia; and cutting specimen samples of the suspect areas through the openings located adjacent the suspect areas.
