Biopsy plate for use in embedding cassette of diagnostic device, comprises flat side, which is formed as upper side for receiving sample of patient extracted in frame of biopsy

The biopsy plate (12) comprises a flat side, which is formed as an upper side (14) for receiving a sample of a patient extracted in the frame of a biopsy, which comprises a material made of non-polar polymer or hydrophylic polyethylene at the upper side. The value of the intensity of its autofluorescence or the fractal dimension of the electromagnetic radiation is distinguished from the corresponding values of the cell tissue. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) an embedding cassette comprises a biopsy plate; and (2) a diagnostic device comprises a measuring chamber.
