Healthy Versus Tumor Tissue and Organoids

Caption

Organoids cultured from tumor and healthy tissue of a patient with head and neck cancer. Both the original tissue and the organoids are stained with hematoxylin (purple) and eosin (pink), a standard staining used in diagnostics. Tumor organoids look different than organoids cultured from healthy tissue and additionally retain characteristics of the original tumor tissue.
