  • Title: A technique for the measurement of the amount and distribution of chronic gastritis.
    Author: Lawson HH.
    Journal: Br J Surg; 1981 Jun; 68(6):390-2. PubMed ID: 7016241.
    Abstract:
    A technique has been described to measure the amount and distribution of gastritis in whole stomachs or resected partial gastrectomy specimens. At a magnification of X 360, mucosal normality or the predominant form of chronic gastritis was recorded at 0.4-mm intervals. Bar diagrams were prepared of the mucosa at 6-mm intervals. Examples are given of the appearance along the lesser curvature where a large ulcer was present, and after the healing of an ulcer. The technique can also be used for the display of information when only multiple biopsy specimens are available.
