Several technologies are integral to real-time tracking in histology:
- Barcoding Systems: Widely used for their simplicity and cost-effectiveness. - RFID: Offers advantages like non-line-of-sight scanning and the ability to store more information compared to barcodes. - LIMS: Centralizes data management, ensuring all specimen information is accessible and up-to-date. - IoT Devices: Used for environmental monitoring (e.g., temperature, humidity) to ensure optimal conditions for sample integrity.
