Optimal News from the Pathology Lab (Thumbs Up for Benign/B9)

Big thumbs up for benign. B9: the best letter/number combination for anyone waiting to hear back from a pathology lab. B9 also stands for Beethoven’s 9th Symphony, 4th Movement (aka: Ode to Joy). An appropriate tune to get stuck in your head each time you hear the magical word: benign.
