... with the conventional preparation can be dissolved by liquid-based cytology (LBC) preparation. The Yokohama System is a method for reporting endometrial cytology, but the system lumps cancers together and does not distinguish between histological types. The objective of this study was to clarify morphometrical...

Study Design: 10,152 consecutive endometrial scrapings obtained in 13 different Japanese hospitals were analyzed. Cytological results were classified as ‘negative for malignancy’, ‘atypical...

... adenocarcinoma in endometrial cytology. Study Design: Samples of normal endometrium, EGBD and endometrial adenocarcinoma were subjected to immunocytochemical staining for Notch-1, and we examined the labeling index (LI) of Notch-1 (the ratio of intranuclear Notch-1-positive cells to total cells). We compared (1...
