Clinical, Radiological, and Pathological Investigation of Asbestosis
By the radiological examination, differential diagnosis of asbestosis from chronic interstitial pneumonia such as IPF/UIP is difficult. The pathological features of asbestosis show the peribronchiolar fibrosis which suggest that asbestos fibers cause the inflammation of bronchioli. Therefore, the criteria for pathological diagnosis of asbestosis in 2010, contain the finding of peribronchiolar f...
متن کاملPathological aspects of asbestosis.
WIDESPREAD recognition of asbestosis dates from the work of Merewether and Price in 1930. They investigated 363 asbestos workers and concluded that there was a pneumoconiosis resulting from asbestos inhalation, that this condition shortened life, and that measures to diminish the atmospheric concentration of asbestos dust would reduce the incidence of the disease. In 1931 asbestosis was accepte...
متن کاملThe Radiological Diagnosis of Asbestosis
The recognition of different pneumoconioses is usually based on a history of exposure to a given dust together with the presence of characteristic changes in the chest radiograph. This implies that the radiological appearances are reasonably specific. Moreover, if they are to be used not only for clinical diagnosis but also for compensation purposes, and for the study of the disease in relation...
متن کاملFocal cortical dysplasia. Clinical-radiological-pathological associations.
INTRODUCTION The term focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) describes a particular migration disorder with a symptomatology mainly characterised by drug-resistant epileptic seizures, typical neuroradiological images, and histological characteristics, as well as a very positive response to surgical treatment in the majority of cases. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 7 patients were studied, comprising...
متن کاملExperimental asbestosis: an investigation of functional and pathological disturbances. I. Methods, control animals and exposure conditions.
The measurement of respiratory function and quantitative assessment of changes in lung morphology are described in a long-term study of asbestos-exposed guinea pigs. Resistance and dynamic compliance of the guinea pig respiratory system were measured non-destructively, and the tidal volume and rate of spontaneous breathing were also determined. A point counting technique was used with histologi...
