tissue banking

Tissue banking involves collecting, processing, and storing human tissues—such as skin, cartilage, or organ samples—for future medical use or research. These tissues are typically donated by hospitals or individuals and preserved under controlled conditions to maintain their quality. Researchers and healthcare providers can then access these stored tissues to develop treatments, perform studies, or assist in surgeries, improving patient outcomes. Tissue banking provides a valuable resource for advancing medicine while respecting donor wishes and ensuring ethical practices.
