What are Common Histological Findings in Infectious Diseases?
Histological examination can reveal various characteristic findings in tissues affected by infections, such as:
Inflammation: Presence of inflammatory cells like neutrophils, lymphocytes, and macrophages in response to infection. Granulomas: Aggregates of macrophages often seen in chronic infections like tuberculosis. Necrosis: Tissue death caused by toxins released by pathogens or due to the immune response. Viral Inclusions: Intracellular changes caused by viral infections, such as inclusion bodies.
