Ultrasonically Assisted Cutting of Histological Sections for Reducing the Environmental and Financial Impact of Microtomy [PDF]
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]
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.
