What does rare epithelial in sputum result mean?
Squamous epithelial cells are scale like layers of cells that pose no risk. When referencing rare squamous epithelial cells it just means that there are not a lot of them.
Difference between striated squamous epithelial tissue and squamous epithelial tissue?
Saquamous cells are flat cells. Single cell layer of these squamous cells is called saqumous cell epithelium. The stratified epithelium means formed of layers [strata] of cells which may or may not be squamous cells. The functions of these layers are different.
Do stratified squamous have flat or tall cells?
Squamous means flat. So you have flat cells here. The basal cells are thicker and progressively becomes more and more flat.
What is an example of an epithelial?
Trachea, bronchi, nasopharynx and male urethra
What protein is made in the squamous cell?
The word squamous refers to the shape of the cell - it means scale shaped and refers to cells that bulge in the middle and taper at the ends. There are many types of cells that are squamous cells. As such, there is no particular protein that is characteristic of squamous cells. They will possess the same set of thousands of basic housekeeping proteins that any cell will possess and supplemented with the dozens or hundreds of proteins that make them a particular kind of squamous cell.

Explain the meaning of squamous epithelial cells?
Squamous epithelial cells are a sub-type of epithelial cells (cells which line glands and the inner and outer surfaces of the body). These cells are characterized as being very thin and flat epithelial cells and populate organs such as the skin and esophagus.
Difference between striated squamous epithelial tissue and squamous epithelial tissue?
Saquamous cells are flat cells. Single cell layer of these squamous cells is called saqumous cell epithelium. The stratified epithelium means formed of layers [strata] of cells which may or may not be squamous cells. The functions of these layers are different.
What is the medical term meaning pertaining to epithelium?
The medical term you are looking for is "epithelial." It refers to anything related to or characteristic of epithelium, which is a type of tissue that lines the surfaces and cavities of the body.
What does scant squamous epithelial component mean when you have a pap smear?
It means that the doctor didn't get enough cells from the pap/swab to be evaluatable. I just had one done and it read that way too and I asked what it meant too. Hope this helped
What does epithelial cells in urine mean?
Epithelial cells in urine generally means that the urine was not a clean mid-stream collection. Epithelial cells, are lining cells of the urethra and are constantly being turned over and sloughed. These cells are commonly called squamous epithelial cells. These cells can also indicate vaginal or perianal contamination. By voiding the first few mL of urine before collecting, there should be a very minimal amount of epithelial cells in the urine. There should only be concern when the epithelial cells found are determined to be renal epithelial cells. And are only concerning in high concentrations. These cells come from the renal tubules and can be a sign of renal disease and should be followed up by your physician.
What is the medical term meaning like or resembling bone?
Myeloid means resembling bone marrow cells.
Do stratified squamous have flat or tall cells?
Squamous means flat. So you have flat cells here. The basal cells are thicker and progressively becomes more and more flat.
What does it mean if pap smear results show endocervical and or squamous metaplastic cells are present?
Endocervical and/or squamous cells are normal on a pap smear. This notation on your result means the test was complete.
What Membrane always simple squamous epithelium?
This is a cell layer of epithelial tissue which is composed of cells which are wider than they are tall. The 'simple' means its one cell layer thick and the 'squamous' means the cells are wider than they are tall. Examples of areas where this type of cell layer include the outer surface of most body organs, the vascular system and the bowmans capsule in the kidney.
What is an example of an epithelial?
Trachea, bronchi, nasopharynx and male urethra
What is moderate epithelial cells?
I'm assuming you are referring to a result from a Urine test. Epithelial cells are skin cells. The lab will report this on urine analysis and it usually means the urine sample is contaminated with skin cells rather than just urine. When I see this reported and review my note on the patient and see that there is equivocal signs and symptoms, I will often ask for another sample before starting antibiotics.
