<block_core_size>0.6 mm</block_core_size>
<block_array_hash>320 cores are arranged over a grid of 29 columns and 19 rows as 5 x 4 subarrays.  There are also 4 cell line cores located in row 5 from column 1-4.  23 additional cell lines and cores are located in a sidebar subarray in columns 25-26.  44 supplementary cores were added in an additional sidebar array in columns 27-29.  Each core location is given as a coordinate from 1,1 to 19,29.  When the slide is placed in front of you in the normal (microscope) view position with the cover-slip up and slide (frosted) label area to the left, the 1,1 core is the extreme left position closest to the person viewing the slide.  The 1,29 position is at the right end of the same row, closest to the end of the slide and furthest from the frosted end.  The 19, 29 position is the farthest right core in the row farthest from the viewer, farthest from the frosted end.  Sample subarrays for prostate cancer, benign prostate, HGPIN, and nodular hyperplasia tissues are distributed in a set of 16 subarrays, each with 5 x 4 cores, and located at (1, 1-5, 4), (1, 6-5, 9), (1, 11-5, 14), (1, 16-5, 19), (7, 1-11, 4), (7, 6-11, 9), (7, 11-11, 14), (7, 16-11, 19), (13, 1-17, 4), (13, 6-17, 9), (13, 11-17, 14), (13, 16-17, 19), (19, 1-23, 4), (19, 6-23, 9), (19, 11-23, 14), (19, 16-23, 19).  A separate sidebar of cell lines and prostate tissues is located in columns 25-26, including rows 1-18 in column 25 and rows 1-9 in column 26.  An additional sidebar of supplementary cores of prostate tissues is located in columns 27-29, including rows 11-14 in column 27, and rows 1-19 in columns 28 and 29.</block_array_hash>
