The mean nuclear area, maximum nuclear diameter (Dmax) and form factor (FF) have been measured in 30 specimens of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and 10 reactive lymph nodes, using the Reichert-Jung (Kontron) MOP-AMO3 image analyzer. Nuclear area and Dmax were found to be greater in high-grade NHL than in low-grade lymphomas and reactive nodes. In addition, there was close correlation between nuclear area and Dmax, especially for low-grade NHL and reactive specimens. As a means of distinguishing between high- and low-grade lymphomas, however, the FF appears to be of little value.
使用Reichert-Jung(Kontron)MOP-AMO3图像分析仪,对30例非霍奇金淋巴瘤(NHL)标本和10例反应性淋巴结标本的平均核面积、最大核直径(Dmax)和形态因子(FF)进行了测量。发现高级别NHL的核面积和Dmax大于低级别淋巴瘤和反应性淋巴结。此外,核面积与Dmax之间存在密切相关性,尤其是在低级别NHL和反应性标本中。然而,作为区分高级别和低级别淋巴瘤的一种方法,FF似乎价值不大。
