What are the Common Issues Affecting Reproducibility?
Various factors can impact reproducibility in histology, including:
Sample Preparation: Variations in how tissues are fixed, sectioned, and stained can lead to inconsistent results. Instrumentation: Differences in the calibration and quality of microscopes and other imaging devices can affect data consistency. Human Error: Subjective interpretation of histological images can introduce variability. Data Analysis: Inconsistent use of image analysis software and quantification methods can lead to discrepancies.
