Histological pictures (20× magnification) of cell block sections prepared from biopsy aspirates taken from different bovine organs (top to bottom: liver, kidney, spleen and muscle) at different TAP levels (left to right: FNAB, USeFNAB 0 W, 0.2 W, 0.5 W and 0.8 W). The results demonstrated that different tissue types included histopathologically relevant cells or tissue constructs, suggesting that SonoLancet could allow histopathological evaluation of samples in selected FNAB applications, if developed to its full potential.
