There are different types of Labs to name some Medical Laboratories, Hospital Laboratories, Public Health Laboratories, Computer Laboratories, Film Laboratories and more. Medical Laboratories: Medical Laboratory is a lab where tests are done on clinical specimens in order to know the health condition of a patient to prevent diseases. There are three types of Medical Laboratories: Clinical Microbiology Laboratories: Bacteriology, Mycobacteriology, Vi... (read more) Author: Linda Elliot

3. The Value of Thrombo Modulin as a Positive Marker for Mesothelioma October 16, 2010 Another interesting study is called, “Value of thrombomodulin immunostaining in the diagnosis of Mesothelioma” by N.G. ORDÓÑEZ Histopathology Volume 31, Issue 1, pages 25–30, July 1997. Here is an excerpt: “Aims: Even with the benefit of immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy, the differential diagnosis between epithelial mesothelioma and pulmonary adenocarcinoma is often difficult. In most instances, the diagnosis of mesothelioma must be reached by the use of immunohistochemical markers that react with adenocarcinomas, but not with mesotheliomas. The purpose of this study is to determi... (read more) Author: Mont Wrobleski

4. Gemcitabine and Malignant Mesothelioma October 16, 2010 Another interesting study is called, “Expression is common in malignant Mesothelioma” by G. KAFIRI, D.M. THOMAS, N.A. SHEPHERD, T. KRAUSZ, D.P. LANE, P.A. HALL – Histopathology - Volume 21, Issue 4, pages 331–334, October 1992. Here is an excerpt: “The p53 tumour suppressor gene has been shown to be frequently mutated in a wide range of human neoplasms. This is accompanied by increased levels of p53 protein which become immunologically detectable in pathological material. We have investigated the possibility that the differential diagnosis between reactive and neoplastic mesothelium might be ... (read more) Author: Mont Wrobleski

5. Epithelial Mesotheliomas Thrombomodulin and Asbestos Disease October 10, 2010 Another interesting study is called, “Mesothelioma-binding antibodies: thrombomodulin, OV 632 and HBME-1 and their use in the diagnosis of malignant Mesothelioma” by R.L. Attanoos, H. Goddard, A.R. Gibbs – Histopathology - Volume 29, Issue 3, pages 209–215, September 1996. Here is an excerpt: “The aim of this study was to examine the expression of three putative mesothelioma-binding antibodies, thrombomodulin, OV 632 and HBME-1 in 42 malignant mesotheliomas (27 pleural and 15 peritoneal) and 32 pulmonary adenocarcinomas. Evaluation of their use in differentiating between the mesotheliomas and... (read more) Author: Mont Wrobleski

6. Malignant Sarcomatoid Mesothelioma-What is This? August 04, 2009 In histological terms, there are four different types of mesothelioma: sarcomatoid, epithelial, biphasic, and desmoplastic (a variant of sarcomatoid).In medical terms, the term histopathology refers to the microscopic examination of cellular tissue to gain insight into the manifestations of various diseases. Malignant sarcomatoid mesothelioma is the least common of the four cellular types. It accounts for approximately 7 to 20 percent of cases. When viewed under a microscope,the malignant cells appear as elongated spindle-shaped cells that are irregularly shaped and often overlap one anot... (read more) Author: Bello Kamorudeen

7. Alzheimer's Disease : The role of Tangles and Plaques May 19, 2009 Alzheimer’s disease is a brain disorder that affects person memory, thinking and behavior. This disease is a form of dementia that is found mainly in people over the age of 65. Alzheimer’s disease accounts for approximately 70 percent of dementia cases. Alzheimer’s disease was first recorded by Dr. Alois Alzheimer, a German physician who specialized in neuropathology and histopathology, in early 1900’s. One of his patients, a woman names Auguste Deter, had completely lost her memory and developed strange behaviors. When she passed away, Dr. Alzheimer decided to examiner her brain to find ...
