[Histonet] tissue pics

[Malcolm McCallum]

Hi everyone, 
Anyone out there have some nice digital images of diseased epithelium.  Last week we covered various epithelium tissues, then had the bright idea that it might be cool to show some pathologies this week.   Also, please tell me what it is in the email.  I know some pathologies, but am not a pathologist, so I might not know what the particular condition is.  I would just like to expose the students see some of this variation and have them try to figure out what it is!  Thanks!
 
Other tissues would also be welcomed for later in the semester.  I hope this isn't to forward of a request!  thanks if anyone can help!

I would have bet $10 I wouldn't have seen that phrase today.

Yes, but a turd is easier to bottle.

Isn't there a breath test too?

H. pylori is a pathogen. It does not sit in the stomach behaving
itself. Its
presence is an indication for treatment, but its absence is *not* an
indication for treatment directed against it, irrespective of how
inflamed
the stomach looks.
The best histologic determinant of H. pylori is an immunostain.
However, in most cases, this is all rather academic, as a quick stool
test
is available, directed against H. pylori antigen, so in most cases, we
are
really trying to determine something better done by other means.

I have to somewhat agree.  Immunos for H. pylori seems to be overkill.
We
routinely stain for H. pylori using a Giemsa on all GI biopsies.

IMO, we take this detecting H. pylori thing too seriously. A rational
physician treats the patient and not any lab test. If I had symptoms
of H. pylori, if my stomach looked inflamed, I would want to be
treated for H. pylori irregardless of their presence on a biopsy.
(Well, maybe as there is some evidence that treating antral H. pylori
may increase the risk of GE junction adenocarcinoma)

I consider immunos on gastric biopsies to be overkill and a waste of
health care dollars.
