Automated Decision Support System for Detection of Leukemia from Peripheral Blood Smear Images.

Peripheral blood smear analysis plays a vital role in diagnosing many diseases including cancer. Leukemia is a type of cancer which begins in bone marrow and results in increased number of white blood cells in peripheral blood. Unusual variations in appearance of white blood cells indicate leukemia.

A rare case of primary female urethral adenocarcinoma: Columnar type with colonic adenocarcinoma features.

Female urethral carcinoma is extremely rare and accounts for 0.02% of all women's cancers and <1% of cancers in the female genitourinary tract. Adenocarcinoma accounts for only 10% of urethral carcinomas in females.

Primary plasma cell leukemia: A report of two cases of a rare and aggressive variant of plasma cell myeloma with the review of literature.

Plasma cell leukemia (PCL) is a rare and aggressive variant of myeloma accounting for 2-3% of all plasma cell dyscrasias characterized by the presence of circulating plasma cells. The diagnosis is based on the % (≥20%) and absolute number (≥2x10 9 /L) of plasma cells in the peripheral blood. The incidence of primary PCL (pPCL) is very rare and reported to occur in <1 in a million.
