GlossaryMicrodissection

precise technique to isolate specific cells under a microscope

Microdissection is a precise laboratory technique used to isolate specific cells or tissues from a larger sample under a microscope. This method is particularly useful in research and medical diagnostics, allowing scientists to study the genetic and molecular characteristics of individual cells, which can be crucial for understanding diseases like cancer or for hair follicle analysis in cases of alopecia.
