🍑vs 🍓.
These 2 lesions are similar but not the same. Let’s take a closer 👀 look…

A pathologist’s first words:

“red is dead, blue is bad.”

This picture of a slide encapsulates both in one image.

Only 53…leg. Didn’t suspect it. Only hx of prior nevi removed.
I suppose it’s obvious where the diagnosis is headed… ImageImageImageImage
I only did 3 stains, probably could have used just 1, but with the lack of history I guess it felt right to super-prove it . ImageImageImageImage

[1/5] How can we improve pathologist efficiency in screening of normal colon biopsies? Take a look at our new #preprint that tackles this issue using #interpretable #AI 🔬 🚀 @PathLAKE_CoE

medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
@PathLAKE_CoE @jnkath @AI4Pathology @NormanZerbe @anantm @mitkoveta @olkazuraw @GuillaumeJaume @pushpak_pati @jana_lipkova @nadeem_lab [2/5] Our approach, named #IGUANA, uses #pathologist-derived #interpretable features within a geometric learning framework to categorise biopsies as normal or abnormal (containing both non-neoplastic and neoplastic conditions).
[3/5] IGUANA achieves 0.98 AUC-ROC on an internal cohort and 0.97 AUC-ROC on three external cohorts. Our analysis shows that at a high sensitivity threshold of 99%, the proposed model can, on average, reduce the number of normal slides to be reviewed by a pathologist by 55%.

What we examined. What the cohort was. How they died. An autopsy review from late last year. Our first initial urgent findings. #pathologist #histpathology #PathTwitter #CPC22 #MedTwitter

Pathology Report for Fungal Infections #tweetorial

Follow the thread to discover.
📌 The order can vary but try to include them all.

2/9 🍄 The fungal elements you find and their amount:

- Hyphae: Are they Pigmented or non-pigmented, septation and branching (acute angle, right angle or both)

- Yeasts: Their size, form and budding

- Pseudohyphae

3/9
🍄 Invasion of the tissues and vessels

🍄 The host’s reaction to the infection (inflammation, necrosis, or hemorrhage)

I am putting together a talk on PD-L1 and I have developed some cartoons to help describe the different scoring systems and provide a visual easy to understand picture of how #Pathologists interpret PD-L1
There are three major scoring systems that are used for PD-L1
TPS (Tumor proportion score)
CPS (Combined Positive Score)
IC (Immune cell score)
We can use cartoons to conceptualize what these mean.
We can then build a cartoon version of a tumor to help understand how these PD-L1 scores may differ between tumors and the challenge in interpreting them
Lets start with the TPS score

Ok this is interesting #livertwitter #MedTwitter
26 yr old woman with jaundice+severe itching (a.k.a cholestatic hepatitis). Routine causes - viruses, prescription drugs, autoimmune liver disease blood tests - neg. No #ayurveda or #herbal drug use. Mysterious🤔
Liver biopsy👇

#pathology expert says its #drug induced liver injury. But patient denies any drug use. She has #PCOD - polycystic ovarian disease (mayocl.in/34S2LMh) and hence, #overweight.
Deep dive into history again - says she's taking #vitamins for weight loss! Asked to show👇

Can you identify the culprit component that caused this woman's severe liver injury? #Pathologist is right! #PathTwitter
