What Tools are Used for Measuring Tissue Structures?
Several tools and techniques are used to measure tissue structures, including:
Microscopes – Optical and electron microscopes provide high-resolution images of tissue sections. Histological Stains – Stains like Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) highlight different tissue components. Image Analysis Software – Software like ImageJ and Aperio can quantify tissue structures from histological images. Calipers and Micrometers – These tools measure dimensions directly from tissue sections.
