Sample text
Aspirate from a lytic bone lesion in a dog. The deeply eosinophilic material in the background is consistent with chondroid. The material is so thick, it is difficult to fully evaluate the nucleated cells in the sample. 48. Aspirate from a mast cell tumor in a dog. Thick aggregates of collagen bundles are present. 49. Aspirate from a mast cell tumor in a dog. Metachromatic granules are visible in the cytoplasm of the cells but also in the background. (Wright–Giemsa, 500× magnification) In order to interpret the cytology appropriately, it is important to consider the histologic appearance of the tissue and the underlying architecture.
Streams of nucleoproteinaceous debris can be identified and are often caused during slide preparation. These structures should not be confused with fungal hyphae. (Wright–Giemsa, 500× magnification) Higher magnification can include 40×, 50×, and 100× objective lenses. Often 100× is necessary to fully evaluate the sample for bacteria and smaller yeast. If using a 40× objective that is not oil immersion, remember to place a coverslip over the sample to improve the crispness of the objective. Features of individual cells will be described in each of the chapters.
44A, B). 41A–C. New methylene blue staining of cytology specimens. (A) The stain is applied to an unstained cytologic specimen. (B) A coverslip is placed on the slide. (C) Microscopic evaluation reveals reasonable nuclear staining; neutrophils and macrophages are identified in this sample. 42. FNA from a mass on a dog. Macroscopic evaluation of the slide is beneficial to identify the best area to evaluate. Some aspirates provide a very small sample. 43. FNA from a dog reveals a mixed cellular population consistent with an inflammatory response.
