    technique using a laser to isolate specific cells from tissue

    Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM) is a technique used to precisely isolate specific cells or regions from a tissue sample using a laser. This allows researchers to study the genetic material, proteins, or other cellular components of the selected cells without contamination from surrounding tissues, making it particularly useful in fields like cancer research and pathology.
