What are the Applications of Fluorescence Scanners in Histology?
Fluorescence scanners have a wide range of applications in histology, including:
Immunohistochemistry: Used to detect specific antigens in tissue sections by employing fluorescently labeled antibodies. In Situ Hybridization: Allows for the detection of specific nucleic acid sequences within tissues using fluorescent probes. Cellular and Tissue Imaging: Enables detailed visualization of cellular structures and tissue architecture. Quantitative Analysis: Facilitates the measurement of fluorescence intensity to quantify the presence of specific molecules. Pathology: Assists in diagnosing diseases by analyzing tissue morphology and marker expression.
