What is the Role of Histology in Diagnosing Parasitic Infections?
Histology plays a vital role in diagnosing parasitic infections. By examining tissue samples under a microscope, pathologists can identify the presence of parasites and the associated tissue reaction. Staining techniques, such as hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Giemsa staining, are commonly used to highlight parasitic structures and differentiate them from surrounding tissue elements.
