How is Streptococcus Pyogenes Diagnosed Histologically?
Histological diagnosis of Streptococcus pyogenes infection involves identifying the characteristic features of inflammation and tissue damage, along with the presence of Gram-positive cocci. Immunohistochemistry can also be employed to detect specific bacterial antigens, providing a more definitive diagnosis. Additionally, molecular techniques such as PCR can be used to confirm the presence of Streptococcus pyogenes DNA in tissue samples.
