Prostatic tissue biopsy be performed?

using a lance-like instrument that is inserted into the rectum. It pierces the rectal wall and, guided by the physician's finger, obtains six to eight pieces of prostatic tissue that are sent to the laboratory for microscopic examination.

Why a counter stain is used in histopathological slide preparation?

The primary stain is selective - it will only highlight certain structures or proteins. The counter stain gives color and definition to the rest of the slide so that the relationship between the highlighted structure and the rest of the cell can be determined.

What causes dysproteinemia?

Dysproteinemia is literally "abnormal protein in blood". Generally, the abnormal proteins are immunoglobins - the proteins made by the immune system to track down and adhere to pathogens to mark them for destruction. The causes can range from a simple acute immune reaction (for example, if you are fighting off a sinus infection) to chronic problems such as cancer or autoimmune disease. The specific immunoglobulinopathy will give a better indication of the cause.

What does lymph node sinus histiocytosis mean?

Lymph nodes are small glands that function to filter the lymph (excess plasma that circulates around tissues in capillary beds); they are often the first place where infections and metastatic cancers are found. The sinuses of a lymph node are small open pockets between the lymphocytes where fluid can accumulate. Histiocytosis is an abnormal accumulation of histiocytes (also called macrophages).

Therefore, lymph node sinus histiocytosis is an abnormal accumulation of macrophages within the open spaces of a lymph node. There are many potential causes of this, ranging from chronic infection to cancer. Your doctor will need to explain what the most likely cause is as well as treatment options and likely outcomes.

What are your limitations follwing your open lung biopsy?

I had an open lung biopsy 12/21/10. For the first 2 weeks you are very limited on what you can do. It does start to get a little bit easier after that. I am 41 and have been told age matters. I went back to work a month later. I was sore and very tired for a long time. You will learn what you can and can't do, listen to your body! If it hurts slow down but don't stop doing it because it does hurt keep going. The best advise I can give you is to start slow and work your way up. DO NOT sit on your butt and do nothing you need to move or it will not get better. What I found the most helpful...get a very comfy recliner your gonna need it, alot of pillows, a side table and stuff to entertain you. Mostly you will need good friends and family members to help you, you will need help with EVERYTHING! I couldn't sleep in a bed for a month and I had to work into that too, start propped up and work your way down to a flat position (this is where the recliner came in handy). Pillows are needed to prop you, a small very firm one is important to "hold" against your side to help you move around. Entertainment is key, cause if you are like me I was very bored and the mad cause I couldn't do anything or move by myself. Read, do puzzles, get a lap top, watch TV, whatever your into. Good Luck to you! I hope this helped. Just remember it does get easier, it just takes a long time.

When there is no caries then why toothache occur?

A cavity is a defect in the enamel of a tooth, which usually but not always exposes the sensitive dentin and/or pulp to the oral environment. This causes the nerve in the tooth root to become inflammed and irritated, causing a toothache.

Other causes of a toothache would be gingivitis (gum disease), pressure on the tooth nerve (such as from an abscess) and neuritis (inflammation of the nerve). While a cavity is one of the more common causes of toothaches, it is not the only cause.

What jobs does with a bachelors of science degree in speech pathology and audiology qualify a person for?

You can be a speech pathology assistant! they make around $15.00 per hour (starting), with benefits. http://faculty.evc.edu/oran.cox/Career_Bridges/speech_path/Speech_Pathology_Assistance.htm

I am not sure if audiologists have assistants, but research it!

Good Luck! :)

What are the top pathology residency programs?

Unfortunately, there is no actual ranking system for pathology residency programs or pathology fellowship programs. However, there is a Pathology Resident Wiki (pathinfo dot wikia dot com) that has a complete pathology residency program directory and pathology fellowship program directory. Another good source of info is studentdoctor dot net.

Can you do your masters in pathology after your bpharm?

You can pursue any field you wish. You will have to inquire about the prerequisite coursework required for that program.

How do you preserve meat using salt in a hot humid climate?

You would salt the meat sufficient to dry it out - in very hot and/or humid climates you would almost have to pack the meat into a case of salt to get the proper dehydration. The salt reduces the water activity (basically the amount of water available to bacteria) in the meat - if the water activity is too low bacteria can't grow and therefore can't spoil the meat.

Does immature sperm cell implies that testes might produce mature cells in future?

Sperm cells have an immature stage in the testes and maturation occurs as the sperm move through the testicular system. There can be multiple reasons for ejaculate to contain immature sperm cells. The mechanical reason is high frequency of intercourse. Another reason for failure would occur in the epididymis where the

Sertoli cells facilitate maturation.

Causes can be adult mumps, hormonal issues, drugs/medication, radiation, genetic anomalies and excess heat.

What is poverty as pathology?

The idea that poverty is the result of an individuals' choices.

Diseases caused by germ cell mutation?

most mutations are silent (and therefore have no effect). of the mutations that have an effect, you can have deletions, additions, point mutations and frameshifts. deletion is when a large section of the DNA is deleted, for example a whole gene, or a large proportion of it. addition is when a large section of DNA is added (this is most common in bacteria, undergoing horrizontal gene transfer, but is also how plants probably got the genes required for photosynthesis for example). point mutations is when one DNA base is changed. these are mostly due to mistakes in DNA replication, are often silent, but can change single aminoacids, and is probably the greatest source of variation within a single species (or population). frameshifts are also caused by ineffective DNA replication, but rather than a base changing, an extra on is added or one is missed out. this changes the way inwhich the cellular machinary reads the DNA, so if it occours within a gene it often means that the gene is now ineffective at the job it was supposed to do before.

Can hypoxia cause cell injury or death?

The consequence of hypoxia is entirely dependent on its intensity, duration, and also dependent on the age, gender, and health status of the victim. Our brain uses 20% of the oxygen we breathe, so I believe that the consequences of a prolonged and intense hypoxia may cause irreversible brain cells' damage, thus leading to a fatal outcome.

Where is the puncture site for a CT guided needle biopsy on the pancreas?

The puncture site depends on the part of the pancreas to be sampled, ranging from it's head to it's tail. Draw a ring around the body from the level of the underside of the ribs to the level of the umbilicus and you have a rough idea of where the puncture will be. The path of the needle is chosen to avoid vascular and digestive structures.
