How is Myocardial Ischemia Detected in Histological Samples?
Myocardial ischemia is detected in histological samples using various staining techniques. Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining is commonly employed to identify cell morphology changes. Special stains such as Masson's Trichrome can highlight fibrosis, while immunohistochemistry can be used to detect specific markers of inflammation and cell death.
