What are the Challenges in Histological Analysis for Drug Development?
Despite its benefits, histological analysis in drug development faces several challenges. One major issue is sample variability, as tissue samples can differ significantly between individuals and even within different regions of the same tissue. Additionally, the process of preparing and staining tissues can introduce artifacts that may complicate the interpretation of results. There is also the need for highly skilled personnel to accurately conduct and interpret histological analyses, which can be resource-intensive.
