Histologically
Histologically (pronounced his-toh-loj-i-klee) is an adverb that refers to the microscopic structure of tissues. It is derived from the Greek words 'histos' meaning tissue, and 'logos' meaning study.
Histologically is often used in the context of medical and biological research, where the histological structure of an organism or tissue is examined under a microscope. This can provide important information about the health and function of the tissue, and can be used to diagnose diseases such as cancer.
