Computerized nuclear morphometry in the diagnosis of thyroid lesions with predominant follicular pattern
BACKGROUND Differential diagnosis of thyroid lesions with predominantly follicular pattern is one of the most common problems in thyroid pathology. Development of more objective and reproducible tools for diagnosis is needed. This work is aimed at studying the role of nuclear morphometry in differential diagnosis of different thyroid lesions having predominant follicular pattern. MATERIAL AND...
متن کاملComputerized nuclear morphometry as an objective method for characterizing human cancer cell populations.
A new method for measuring differences in nuclear detail in chrome alum gallocyanin-stained nuclei of cells from human breast cancers was compared with conventional subjective grading and classification systems. The new method, termed computerized nuclear morphometry (CNM), gives a multivariate numerical score that correlates well with nuclear atypia and gives a higher reproducibility of classi...
متن کاملNuclear Morphometry in African Breast Cancer
Three hundred cases of invasive breast cancer diagnosed between 1983 and 1999 in Calabar, Nigeria were analysed to determine the nuclear morphometric variables, and evaluate the prognostic potential of nuclear morphometry in Nigerian breast cancers. The necessary follow-up was available for 129 patients. The nuclear area was the most valuable variable. In the Nigerian material, the mean nuclear...
متن کاملUtility of Nuclear Morphometry with ImageJ in Effusion Cytology
An effusion denotes pathological accumulation of fluids in the serous cavities resulting from several nonneoplastic and neoplastic causes. Cytological diagnosis of effusion fluids is an important investigation to determine the appropriate treatment.The distinction of reactive mesothelial cells from carcinoma cells can sometimes prove to be a diagnostic challenge even for the experienced cytopat...
متن کاملHistopathology, morphometry, and nuclear DNA content of iris melanocytic lesions.
PURPOSE To compare the histologic, morphometric and nuclear DNA content of a group of benign and malignant melanocytic lesions of the iris. METHODS Forty-four surgically excised melanocytic lesions of the iris were histologically classified as nevus or melanoma. Morphometric analysis using a digital filar micrometer (LaSICO 1602N-10 and 5-4A) measured the mean size of the 10 largest nucleoli,...
