What Does TMA Stand For?
TMA stands for Tissue Microarray
TMA, or Tissue Microarray, is a high-throughput technology used in biomedical research that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple tissue samples on a single, small slide. This method enables the efficient examination of various specimens, facilitating the study of disease pathology, biomarker expression, and therapeutic responses. TMAs are particularly valuable in cancer research, offering insights into tumor heterogeneity and aiding in the development of personalized medicine approaches.
