Histology technologists are involved in several key tasks:
Tissue Preparation: They process tissue samples by fixing, embedding, and sectioning them to create slides for microscopic examination. Staining Techniques: They apply special stains to the tissue sections to highlight specific structures and components, making them easier to identify under a microscope. Microscopic Analysis: They examine the stained slides to identify cellular abnormalities, infections, tumors, and other pathological conditions. Quality Control: They ensure the accuracy and reliability of test results by adhering to strict laboratory protocols and performing regular quality control checks.
