Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM) Videos
Laser capture microdissection (LCM) is a sensitive methodology that can be used to specifically isolate cell populations undergoing oncogenic transformations. LCM is used in the identification of clusters of altered cells by removing them from the adjacent tissue and isolating their genetic material to study them exclusively. When combined with genomic sequencing technologies, LCM can be used to help improve sensitivity while enhancing efficiency in the study of limited, targeted cells.
