Relating to the branch of biology that studies cell structure, composition, and function using microscopes.
From Greek 'cyto-' (cell) + '-logical' (relating to systematic study). This more formal version of 'cytologic' became standard in scientific publications during the 20th century.
Modern cytological techniques have become so advanced that scientists can now watch individual proteins moving inside living cells in real time—like having microscopic security cameras in a cell.
