Squash smear and fine needle aspiration features of conventional chordoma

Cytopathology, 2023
AbstractChordoma is a rare primary central nervous system tumour of notochordal origin. Proper intraoperative or preoperative diagnosis of this entity is crucial for appropriate surgical management. The most common histopathological subtype is conventional chordoma. Cytological characteristics of this subtype are quite distinctive and the diagnosis can

Conventional Pap Smear and Liquid-based Cervical Cytology Smear: Comparison from the Same Patient

Tumori Journal, 2002
Background The results of blind reading of smears obtained with liquid-based cytology in patients previously screened by conventional cytology were compared. Material and methods Cases selected for the study were a consecutive series of 99 subjects undergoing colposcopy within the screening program of the Florence District.

Conventional approach to the problem of the deuteron smearing corrections

Physical Review C, 1983
A comprehensive analysis of the problem of deuteron smearing corrections is given. Some problems of the usual approach (the conventional approach) are discussed. It is shown that the formalism adopted by this approach leads to (i) the existence of the so-called West ..beta..

ThinPrep versus conventional Papanicolaou smear in the cytologic follow-up of women with equivocal cervical smears

Cancer, 2003
The purpose of the current study was to compare the efficacy of liquid-based cytology and conventional smears in the cytologic follow-up of cases with "atypical squamous cells, cannot exclude a high-grade lesion" (ASC-H) or "atypical glandular cells" (AGC).Cytologic follow-up was performed on 214 cases with ASC-H/AGC diagnosis an conventional smears ...

Cost Analysis of PAPNET-Assisted vs. Conventional Pap Smear Evaluation in Primary Screening of Cervical Smears

Acta Cytologica, 2001
To assess the difference in costs between PAPNET-assisted and conventional microscopy of cervical smears when used as a primary screening tool.We performed time measurements of the initial screening of smears by four cytotechnologists in one laboratory.

Clinical parameters associated with unsatisfactory specimens of conventional cervical smears

Diagnostic Cytopathology, 2011
AbstractAlthough The Bethesda System 2001 attempted to standardize the criteria for specimen adequacy, much confusion still exists, which includes the significance of unsatisfactory smears, the causes and clinical conditions related to unsatisfactory smears, and the appropriate management of unsatisfactory smears.

[Comparison of monolayer specimens and conventional smears].

Ugeskrift for laeger, 2001
Monolayer specimens were compared with conventional smears in a split sample study. The quality of the specimens, sensitivity, time consumption, and costs were elucidated.Conventional smears and fixated residual material from 1701 women were available.The number of inadequate/less adequate specimens was reduced significantly (p < 0.001).
