Morphologic changes in age‐related maculopathy

Morphologic Changes in Vascular Dementia

Morphologic changes in cortex and white matter of the cerebral frontal lobes in vascular dementia were studied. The signs of leykoaraiosis in white matter were revealed. Obvious signs of neurodegeneration expressed in loss of neurons, which is considered to be the attribute of aging process and may be one of significant etiologic factors of vascular dementia, had not been identified.

Morphologic Changes in Pulmonary Emphysema.

I NTENSE INTEREST EXPRESSED BY CLINIcians, physiologists, and pathologists in pulmonary emphysema has stimulated the need for establishing some criteria for the normal anatomy and subsequent pathologic change. Regardless of the conflict in the theories of etiology, we must be cognizant of certain changes which take place in the pulmonary parenchyma. The fine relationships between structure, fun...

Quantification of cystoid changes in diabetic maculopathy.

PURPOSE In patients with diabetic macular edema and cysts, quantification of the extent of the cystoid formation has been difficult. This study was performed to introduce reliable measurements of cysts, the quantification of the extent, and its relation to visual acuity. METHODS Fluorescein angiography generated with a scanning laser ophthalmoscope provided detailed recognition not only of th...

Morphologic Changes of Adrenal Cortex in Disease

Stimulation of the adrenal cortex by the "stress" of illness is now taken for granted. Numerous publications have described changes in adrenal cortical histology in particular diseases, and at least one author' has attempted a general study of the adrenal cortex in an autopsy population. Even so little attention is paid the adrenal cortex in the average autopsy performed by the average patholog...
