Prepackaged collections of the devices and supplies (i.e., either custom or standard kits) needed for cutting/pulling apart tissue by means of a scalpel or with scissors (i.e., dissection). Items in these kits usually include dissecting scalpels, scissors, and forceps; they may also include probes, teasing needles, pipettes, and rulers. The kits are frequently supplied in supporting trays (i.e., procedure trays) consisting of a flat-bottomed receptacle with a border around the periphery supporting all the instruments and supplies needed for the procedure; the trays are usually covered or wrapped. Dissection procedure kits and trays are used to obtain body tissue samples intended for in-vitro determination of the tissue structures either through direct visual or microscopic examination. They are used in hospitals\' pathology rooms and other healthcare units.
