Throwing light upon individual imaging feature and biological/ molecular alterations, analyses that may detect subsets of morphologically identical tumours with different clinical behavior (diagnostic markers).
However, patients with morphologically identical tumours can have significantly different clinical outcomes.
The GPIIb MO-injected fish were morphologically identical to controls, concordant with GT patients where only a small proportion of patients display severe spontaneous bleeding.
Slides for cytological examination were prepared, of which one contained a high number of bacteria morphologically identical to L.monocytogenes associated with squamous epithelial cells.
A precise documentation of the changes, e.g. based on CT scanning, facilitates precise identification of different forms of CLJ and correct classification of animals with morphologically identical orofacial malformations for further analyses.
E. dispar, a closely related non-pathogenic species, is morphologically identical to E. histolytica but with very different pathogenic properties [ 1].
Cells that stained positive for CD169 were morphologically identical to cells that stained with anti-CD68 antibodies in consecutive tissue sections, confirming their identity as macrophages.
However, the identification of such individuals requires a diagnostic tool that can distinguish E. histolytica gut infections from infections with the morphologically identical but harmless intestinal parasite Entamoeba dispar (E. dispar), which is widely distributed in regions endemic for E. histolytica [ 7].
The parasite has been estimated to infect 40 million people around the world, although the real number of E. histolytica cases is unknown due to the inclusion in this estimation of cases with the morphologically identical E. dispar and E. moshkovskii species.
Similarly, it remains unclear how to deal taxonomically with cases in which morphologically identical populations exhibit certain amounts of divergence in the mitochondrial genome [9], [10].
