What Techniques are Used in Histological Analysis for Personalized Medicine?

Several advanced techniques are employed in histological analysis to support personalized medicine:

Immunohistochemistry (IHC): This technique uses antibodies to detect specific proteins within tissue sections, helping to identify cellular phenotypes and molecular markers.
In Situ Hybridization (ISH): ISH allows for the localization of specific nucleic acid sequences within tissues, providing insights into gene expression patterns.
Fluorescence Microscopy: This method uses fluorescent dyes or proteins to visualize specific cellular components, enhancing the detection of molecular changes.
Digital Pathology: The digitization of histological slides enables advanced image analysis and integration with other clinical data for comprehensive patient profiling.
