Abstract.
The erratum adds references to relevant prior work using lasers for microdissection of a tissue section.
This article [J. Biomed. Opt. 27(12), 125001 (2022) doi: https://doi.org/10.1117/1.JBO.27.12.125001 was originally published on 14 December 2022 without references to some relevant prior work using lasers for microdissection of a tissue section.
The following text and references were added to the 2nd paragraph of the Introduction section:
While lasers have been utilized previously for laser microdissection to harvest cells from thin histologic sections or cell cultures,10–14 the laser microbiopsy approach described here harvests three-dimensional tissue volumes from thick tissues. In addition, we describe a photothermal cutting mechanism as opposed to plasma mediated ablation used for laser microdissection.13,14
