Light Microscopy: The most common type used in histology, it uses visible light to illuminate tissue sections, producing images that can be analyzed for cellular and tissue structures. Fluorescence Microscopy: Utilizes specific wavelengths of light to excite fluorescently labeled components within the tissue, allowing for the visualization of specific proteins or other molecules. Electron Microscopy: Provides much higher resolution images by using electron beams instead of light, enabling the visualization of ultrastructural details at the molecular level.
