Histology (from the Greek istos) is the study of tissue sections which have been sliced thinly so that they may be visible through a microscope. Tissues are sliced using a microtome (Greek micro – small, tome – slice). Histology can also be a form of microscopic anatomy. Histology is an essential tool for the study of biology.
