See them all the time under the microscope during my daily work...looking at skin specimens in the pathology lab.

A time honored tradition of pathology residents is to cut up a hot-dog, quick freeze it, and cut and 'stain' it to look at it under the microscope. Ewwwww. (The 'quick' freeze, or frozen section, is used to make certain rapid pathology diagnosis while the patient is still on the table and helps to guide the surgeon).
