How is Patchy Interstitial Fibrosis Diagnosed Histologically?
Diagnosis of patchy interstitial fibrosis involves several steps: 1. Tissue Biopsy: A sample from the affected organ is obtained. 2. Histological Staining: Specific stains are used to differentiate fibrous tissue from normal tissue. 3. Microscopic Examination: Pathologists examine the stained tissue sections to identify the characteristic patchy distribution of fibrotic areas.
