Ultrasonically Assisted Cutting of Histological Sections for Reducing the Environmental and Financial Impact of Microtomy [PDF]
Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2022 Modern-day microtomy requires high precision equipment to thinly section biological tissues. The sectioned tissue must be of good quality not showing cutting tracks or so-called artefacts.

Three-dimensional label-free histological imaging of whole organs by microtomy-assisted autofluorescence tomography [PDF]
iScience, 2022 Summary: Three-dimensional (3D) histology is vitally important to characterize disease-induced tissue heterogeneity at the individual cell level. However, it remains challenging for both high-throughput 3D imaging and volumetric reconstruction.

Development of a Hands-On and Virtual Simulation Training Module To Teach Microtomy. [PDF]
Cureus, 2022 Background: Microtomy is a risky procedure that medical laboratory technologists (MLTs) use to cut tissue samples for microscopic examination. Due to the safety concerns and the potential to destroy tissue samples, it is critical for learners to perform ...

Ultrasonically Assisted Cutting of Bio-tissues in Microtomy
Physics Procedia, 2016 Modern-day histology of bio-tissues for supporting stratified medicine diagnoses requires high-precision cutting to ensure high quality extremely thin specimens used in analysis. Additionally, the cutting quality is significantly affected by a wide variety of soft and hard tissues in the samples.

Three-dimensional cardiac architecture determined by two-photon microtomy [PDF]
Journal of Biomedical Optics, 2009 Cardiac architecture is inherently three-dimensional, yet most characterizations rely on two-dimensional histological slices or dissociated cells, which remove the native geometry of the heart. We previously developed a method for labeling intact heart sections without dissociation and imaging large volumes while preserving their three-dimensional ...

CODEX Microtomy Tracking Sheet v1 [PDF]
, 2019 Microtomy Tracking Sheet for CODEX Specimens The process of sectioning CODEX specimens presents tediously at the tissue block trimming and microtomy stage. As you begin to cut into a new or already used tissue block, you must keep track of how many microns of tissue are removed from the section during trimming, and also during microtomy. Attached is a
