Histological examination of dermal tissue involves several techniques:
Hematoxylin and eosin staining (H&E): This is the most common staining method used to visualize the general structure of the dermis. Immunohistochemistry: This technique uses antibodies to detect specific proteins within the dermal tissue. Electron microscopy: Provides detailed images of the ultrastructure of dermal components. Confocal microscopy: Allows for the three-dimensional imaging of dermal structures.
