DISCO: a general software tool for dislocation contrast factor calculations in diffraction analysis

Journal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
DISCO is a program capable of calculating the X‐ray contrast factor for single‐ and polycrystalline materials in real time.Dislocation contrast factors (CFs) play a central role in diffraction‐based analyses of plastic deformation, linking the elastic strain fields generated by dislocations to diffraction line broadening.

Decoverslipping of Archival Cytology Aspirate Smears for Ancillary Studies: A Review of Methods and Institutional Experience With Freezer‐Based Techniques

Cytopathology, EarlyView.
Freezer‐based decoverslipping of archival cytology aspirate smears achieved only 32.5% slide‐level success (26/80), with mounting medium composition and coverslip material, not freezing temperature or duration, identified as dominant determinants, underscoring the need to align coverslipping practices with anticipated ancillary testing requirements ...
