Several factors can contribute to subjectivity in histology:
1. Observer Bias: Personal biases and preconceived notions can affect how a histologist interprets a slide. 2. Experience Level: Less experienced histologists may have difficulty distinguishing between similar-looking structures, leading to varied interpretations. 3. Quality of Specimens: Poorly prepared or preserved specimens can be difficult to interpret and may lead to subjective assessments. 4. Environmental Factors: Lighting, microscope quality, and even the time of day can influence how a histological sample is viewed and interpreted.
