ok, so its hard and the pink dots all look the same (i'm simplifying greatly here!)

but its an amazingly simple way to diagnose conditions and perhaps the development of others............take cervical screening for example - where pre-cancerous changes can be detected.

its also used to determine the treatment options in other conditions, for example cancers, if it appears to be histologically invasive etc.
