GeoMx Microregional Spatial Transcriptomics
GeoMx microregional spatial transcriptomics detects high-plex protein and RNA expression within FFPE-embedded tissues to measure gene expression across the entire transcriptome. We combine this method with H&E and CyCIF images to select region of interests (ROIs) for GeoMX analysis.
