During the examination of a wounded white pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus) brought to the clinic of Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Selcuk University, lice infestation of the oral cavity was observed and 26 lice were collected. The lice were identified as Piagetiella titan during microscopical examination. No other report of this particular subject in Turkey was found. Therefore, this original o...

All African policeman aged twenty-two years came to hospital with the history that he had suffered a blow on his left forearm two months previously. There was a diffuse smooth swelling of mixed consistency over the distal quarter of his radius; the skin over it was red but not adherent, and movement of the wrist joint was partly impaired in all directions. Radiological examination showed a typi...

Examination of human gastric biopsies by an indirect immunofluorescence technique using antihuman gastrin confirms the variability in distribution and number of gastrin-secreting (G) cells (Solcia, Vassallo, and Capella, 1969) observed by morphological, cytochemical, and electron microscopical studies. In cases with presumed secondary hypersecretion a profound degree of G-cell hyperplasia is ob...

We report a case of clear cell "sugar" tumour of the lung (CCTL) occurring in a 26-year-old lady. The patient was asymptomatic and the lesion was picked up in the course of a pre-employment medical examination. A well-defined 5 cm nodule in the right lower lobe was detected on routine chest X-Ray. Microscopical examination of the coin lesion showed clear cells containing abundant diastase-sensi...

Background: Presence of malaria immune factors induced by erythrocytic stages is widely used as an epidemiological approach to diagnose the infection mainly to distinguish the current, recent and past infections. This study was performed to find out the status of malaria, using microscopical and serological (IFA) methods in Bandar-Abbas and Minab, two malarious districts in Hormozgan Province o...

very favourably some time ago. The present volume is intended for the public health student and will be found very useful by medical officers at home on leave, who are working for that most useful diploma, the D. P. H. The first 126 pages of this book is taken up with the chemical, microscopical and physical examination of water for public health purposes. Part II treats of the analysis of sewa...

In tropical countries, specially in India, helminthic infection is endemic in many areas and in a large population the hookworm infection rate particularly is very high and reaches nearly a hundred per cent. In majority of cases the infection when mild lies dormant without pr?" ducing any clinical symptoms and are discover' ed only on microscopical examination of the stool. Such subclinical typ...

In virtual microscopy, a sequential process of captures of microscopical fields, allows to construct a virtual slide which is visualized using a specialized software, called the virtual microscopy viewer. This tool allows useful exploration of images, composed of thousands of microscopical fields of view at different levels of magnification, emulating an actual microscopical examination. The ai...
