What Challenges Exist in Histology Standardization?
Despite its importance, several challenges can impede standardization in histology: - Variability in Sample Preparation: Differences in tissue handling and preparation can affect results. - Technical Skill Level: Variability in the expertise of histotechnologists can lead to inconsistent outcomes. - Equipment and Reagents: Variations in the quality and calibration of equipment and reagents can introduce discrepancies. - Protocol Adaptation: Customization of protocols for specific tissues or research needs can lead to deviations from standard methods.
