The modern microscope is an incredibly powerful tool when it comes to detecting disease, but typically the biological material being studied needs to be stained or dyed to reveal its secrets. This can ...

A study published today in Nature demonstrates that by modifying the surface of conventional microscope slides at the nanoscale, biological structures and cells take on a striking color contrast that ...

Microscopic evaluation of resected tissue plays a central role in the surgical management of cancer. Because optical microscopes have a limited depth-of-field (DOF), resected tissue is either frozen ...

A deep-learning computer network was 100 percent accurate in determining whether invasive forms of breast cancer were present in whole biopsy slides. The network correctly made the same determination ...

Histomorphometric analysis of histologic sections of normal and diseased bone samples, such as healing allografts and fractures, is widely used in bone research. However, the utility of traditional ...

The development of the mesodissection system followed an ISO 9001 compliant phase review process. The breadboard prototype instrument was developed at AvanSci Bio using a modified commercial milling ...

Red dye fills the tiny blood vessels of this tongue tissue. The large, roundish structure in the center of image is a projection on the surface of the tongue known as a fungiform papilla. These ...

Wesley R. Coe, professor of zoology at Yale during the early 20th century, devoted his career to studying ribbon worms — a group of mostly marine-dwelling creatures that includes more than 1,000 known ...

Spatial transcriptomics may have just achieved single-cell resolution. Researchers led by Evan Macosko, Fei Chen, and colleagues at the Broad Institute in Cambridge, Massachusetts, bound together ...

A deep-learning computer network developed through research led by Case Western Reserve University was 100 percent accurate in determining whether invasive forms of breast cancer were present in whole ...

Dissection of specific Areas Of Interest (AOIs) directly from slide-mounted tissue sections is commonly used to enrich for cell types of interest for further molecular analysis. Most clinical labs ...
