摘要 |
The invention relates to a method and an apparatus(1000) for the examination of a sample, for example a slice of biological tissue(11) on a microscope slide (10). The method comprises the generation of an image (I) of the sample(11), the analysis of said image with respect to at least one sample-parameter, the selection of an image-ROI (region of interest) (RI) in said image (I), and the isolation of a corresponding sample-ROI (RS) from the sample (11). Molecular assays are then executed with the isolated sample-ROI (RS), and the data obtained from these assays are linked to the sample-parameter. The sample-parameter may particularly relate to the local amount of a particular cell-type or tissue-type. |
