How is Renal Parenchymal Disease Diagnosed Histologically?
The diagnosis of renal parenchymal disease is primarily achieved through renal biopsy. During this procedure, a small tissue sample is taken from the kidney and examined under a microscope. Pathologists use various staining techniques, such as Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E), Periodic Acid-Schiff (PAS), and Masson's Trichrome to identify specific changes in the renal parenchyma.
