Milestone 6: SECM for quantification of individual eosinophils. The working principle of SECM is illustrated in (a) and (b). A spectrally dispersed line is scanned over a region of interest enabling highly parallelized confocal microscopy imaging. Next to the corresponding H&E histology (c), (d), imaging results from the first SECM EoE biopsy study that illustrate the increased light scattering by eosinophils are depicted (e), (f) (figure and caption adapted and reprinted with permission from [117] © American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy)
