Transmission electron microscopy of percutaneous fine needle aspirates from lung: a study of 70 cases.
Seventy consecutive lung fine needle aspirates (FNA) from 69 patients were examined by cytology/cell block histology, by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and, where available, at histological follow up to determine the value of TEM in interpreting lung FNAs. Of 70 FNAs, 50 were suitable for TEM. Transmission electron microscopy was helpful in classifying seven of 10 poorly differentiated...
متن کاملMicrofilaria and filarial granulomas from fine needle aspirates: a study of 25 cases.
The objective of this study was to assess the role of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) for the diagnosis of filariasis. Cytological smears were studied during 2006-2009. Twenty-five cases with microfilaria were detected: 7 from lymph nodes, 5 from soft tissue, 4 from effusion fluids, 3 from breast tissue, 2 from liver tissue, 1 each from thyroid tissue, a cervicovaginal smear, a hernial s...
متن کاملExamination of Lung Parenchyma by Electron Microscopy
In this paper many of the principal structure of the Moral Lung were studied with the help of Electron Microscopy. Detailed description was given of Granular Pneumocytes, Membranous Pneumocytes, Macrophages, and Alveolar Capillaries. A discussion followed on the form and function of Granular Pneumocytes. Acknowledgements I am grateful to the Reza Shah Pahlavi Foundation for its generou...
متن کاملDiagnosis of subcutaneous cysticercosis in fine needle aspirates: a study of 10 cases.
The objective of this study is to document the value of Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) in the diagnosis of subcutaneous cysticercosis. Aspirates smears of 10 cases of subcutaneous swellings were studied over a period of 1 year between January 2004 and January 2005. The subcutaneous swellings were presented at different sites like cheek, neck, forearm, arm, chest wall and abdominal wall....
متن کاملComputerized Diagnosis of Breast Fine-Needle Aspirates
The goal of this work is to determine the accuracy of computer-based image analysis in diagnosing breast fine-needle aspirates (FNA). On 192 FNAs, the computerbased diagnostic accuracy was 97.9%. This is consistent with the 97.5% accuracy projected by machine learning methods during the initial training in 1994 with 569 FNAs. One of the attributes of this system is the rendering of a value that...
