How is MRI used in specific histological applications?
MRI has been applied in various specific histological contexts:
Neurohistology: MRI is widely used in brain research to study neuroanatomy and neuropathology, providing a macroscopic view that can be correlated with microscopic findings. Oncology: In cancer research, MRI can identify tumors and guide the selection of biopsy sites for histological examination, enhancing the understanding of tumor biology and progression. Cardiovascular research: MRI can be used to visualize heart and blood vessel structures, offering insights into cardiovascular diseases that can be complemented by histological analysis of tissue samples.
