In a histopathology laboratory the biomedical scientist processes samples of tissues from surgical operations and autopsies. Tissue sections are cut and stained so that cellular structures and detail can be visualised under a light microscope. Lymph node, kidney or liver tissues may require specialised staining techniques to demonstrate immunological markers. Some laboratories specialise in tissues from specific organs such as the nervous system, and others in processing tissues for examination by electron microscopy
