Several key areas demand continuous learning in Histology:
1. Immunohistochemistry (IHC): As a technique that combines immunology and histology, IHC has become a cornerstone in diagnostic pathology. Understanding new antibodies and staining techniques is crucial. 2. Digital Pathology: The shift towards digitalization, including whole-slide imaging and the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in pathology, necessitates ongoing education. 3. Molecular Pathology: Integrating molecular biology with histological techniques, such as in in situ hybridization (ISH), requires histologists to stay informed about genetic markers and their implications.
