A small tumor is excised from a patient's body by a biopsy. A clinical cytopathologist wants to examine the shape, size, and arrangement of the cells within the tumor by routine histology (the study of tissues) by fixing and staining them with hematoxylin and eosin. The best microscopic technique to use would be: O bright-field microscopy O phase contrast microscopy O fluorescence microscopy. O All of the other can be used O DIC microscopy

Which of the following is an advantage of confocal microscopy over conventional fluorescence microscopy? The interaction of the laser beam with the cell surface allows the imaging of individual macromolecules O Only out-of-focus light enters the microscope lens, making the object appear illuminated against a dark background The use of electrons instead of light to image the specimen results in greatly increased resolving power O Optical sections in a single plane of focus can be visualized at different depths in the specimen The natural contrast of an unstained specimen is enhanced

ARTEFACTS Tissue is usually fixed and embedded in such material as paraffin, gelatine, resin etc. prior to sectioning. A range of knives (metal, glass, diamond) are used on various cutting machines -microtomes to obtain the sections. As a result, the tissue can sometimes be pushed out of shape and scratches, tears, or folds can appear. Excessive drying can create spaces that do not exist, and uneven thíckness can cause unusual colouring effects. These extra features are called artefacts.
