it is sometimes difficult to recognize a jaw lesion as osteosarcoma, ossifying fibroma or ‎fibrous dysplasia in routine hematoxylin and ‎eosin staining and a more accurate technique is needed to differentiate these ‎lesions. ‎many studies have shown the potential usefulness of silver-stained nucleolar organizer region (agnor) parameters for the diagnosis of various neoplasms. this study was car...

 SUMMARY In an investigation in summer· 1993 in health centers, 431 faecal samples from children with diarrhea were examined. In 14 (6 girls and 8 boys) 3.25 percent with modified Ziehl -Neelson Staining technique Oocyst of cryptosporidium has been demonstrated and the results discussed.

background: lymphadenitis is a common form of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis. as in peripheral health centers, the facili­ties for histopathology and culture are lacking, material obtained by fine needle aspiration (fna) in suspected cases of tubercu­lar lymphadenitis (tbl) cid fast bacilli (afb) by ziehl neelson method as every designated micros­copy centre under revised national tuberculosis co...

background : cd117 is a thyrosin kinase receptor encoded by c-kit proto-oncogene. it is expressed during normal development in some tissues and also in a subset of neoplasia especially gastrointestinal stromal tumors   (gists). treatment with thyrosin kinase inhibitors (e.g., imatinib) is useful in cd117- positive gists. the goal of this study is to investigate the expression of cd117 in glial ...

argyrophilic staining of nucleolar organizer regions (agnor) has been considered to be useful in the diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of different cutaneous tumors. in order to evaluate the role of the agnor technique in discriminating aggressive from non-aggressive basal cell carcinoma (bcc), paraffin-embedded histologic sections from 30 cases of aggressive bcc (bcc2) and 30 cases of non-ag...
