Observer variability in histopathological reporting of cervical biopsy specimens.
Sections from 100 cervical biopsy specimens were studied by 12 consultant histopathologists to determine the robustness of the existing pathology terminology and classification. Analysis by kappa statistics showed good agreement in the diagnosis of CIN 3 and squamous carcinoma but an inability to distinguish accurately between the lesser grades of CIN. It is recommended that the classification ...
متن کاملUse of electron microscopy in examination of faeces and rectal and jejunal biopsy specimens.
The stools and rectal biopsy specimens of 44 patients with AIDS and diarrhoea were examined by culture, light microscopy, and electron microscopy. In 13 patients examination of rectal biopsy material and faecal samples showed no pathogen, but in two of these, microsporidiosis was found by electron microscopical examination of jejunal biopsy specimens. This organism was also identified electron ...
متن کاملAnalytical subcellular fractionation of jejunal biopsy specimens: methodology and characterization of the organelles in normal tissue.
1. Portions of closed jejunal biopsies were gently homogenized in isotonic sucrose or sorbitol and centrifuged at 800 g for 10 min to prepare a cell extract. 2. The extract was fractionated in a single-step procedure by isopycnic centrifugation on a continuous sucrose or sorbitol density gradient with the Beaufay automatic zonal rotor. 3. The subcellular organelles were located in the density g...
متن کاملMorphometric assessment of reflux oesophagitis in fibreoptic biopsy specimens.
The oesophageal epithelium of patients with reflux oesophagitis has been studied by means of computer aided morphometry. Measurements of histological features were made on biopsies from six cases before and after treatment. The size and elongation of the nuclei and their variation, the number of nuclei per unit length or per unit sectioned area, and the size and number of nucleoli per nucleus w...
متن کاملObserver variation in the clinical and radiological assessment of hepatosplenomegaly.
The size of the liver and spleen of 32 patients was assessed by four clinicians from a clinical examination and by four radiologists from a plain radiograph of the abdomen. The latter assessment was found to be subject to less variation than the former, particularly in regard to the liver. Large livers and spleens were more easily seen radiologically than small ones. Most of the variation among...
