What methodologies are commonly used in Histology research?

Histology research employs a variety of methodologies to study tissues. Common techniques include tissue fixation, embedding, sectioning, and staining. Advanced methods such as immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, and confocal microscopy are also frequently used to provide detailed images and quantifiable data. These techniques allow researchers to visualize specific cellular components, such as proteins or nucleic acids, and to analyze their distribution and abundance within tissues.
