A comparison of fixation methods on lung morphology in a murine model of emphysema.
Emphysema is characterized by enlargement of the alveoli, which is the most important parameter to assess the presence and severity of this disease. Alveolar enlargement is primarily defined on morphological criteria; therefore, characterization of this disease with morphological parameters is a prerequisite to study the pathogenesis. For this purpose, different methods of lung fixation were ev...
متن کاملThe Diagnosis of Emphysema.
Pulmonary emphysema is generally defined anatomically. It follows therefore that pathologists have the best opportunity to diagnose emphysema accurately. Whether they take advantage of this opportunity may be doubted by observers interested in lung disease, and Wyatt, Fischer, and Sweet (1961) have called the usual criteria (gross inspection and palpation of the lung and microscopic examination...
متن کاملA Three-Year Experience of Medical Thoracoscopy at A Tertiary Care Center of Himalayan Region
Introduction: Medical thoracoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure for diagnosing and treating pleural diseases. Despite its proven role in diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, it is infrequently used, which could be because of cost of equipment and lack of training. We analyzed our initial 3 years record of thoracoscopy at Himalayan Institute of Medical Sciences, a tertiary care center in Hi...
متن کاملCorrelation between anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA), rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides antibodies (Anti-CCP) and percentage and type of pulmonary involvement in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, Booali Hospital Tehran (2016-2
Background: Controlling the pulmonary involvement, as one of the most common extra-articular consequences in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), can improve the life quality and survival rate of patients. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between disease-related inflammatory factors and the severity and type of lung involvement in patients, which is a practical step toward early detection and...
متن کاملHelium-3 MRI diffusion coefficient: correlation to morphometry in a model of mild emphysema.
Hyperpolarised gases have been most recently used in magnetic resonance imaging to demonstrate new image-derived pulmonary function parameters. One of these parameters is the apparent diffusion coefficient, which reflects the sizes of the structures that compartmentalise gas within the lung (i.e. alveolar space). In the present study, noninvasive parameters were compared to microscopic measurem...
