Malaria blood smear: Plasmodium falciparum vs vivax (headphone ring trophozoite banana gametocyte)

This clip is an excerpt from a Hemepath Board Review video by special guest, Dr. Jeanette Ramos (full video here: kikoxp.com/pos... you missed Dr. Ramos's first guest lecture discussing the histology and immunostaining patterns of non-neoplastic lymph nodes, check it out here: kikoxp.com/pos....
If you like Dr. Ramos's cases and teaching style, be sure to follow UAMS Hematopathology on social media, as she often contributes to their accounts:

Of course, this video is for educational purposes only and is not formal medical advice or consultation. Neither Dr. Ramos nor Dr. Gardner have any special inside knowledge of the content of the path/heme/hemepath/USMLE board examinations. This video is subjectively labeled as a "board review" purely because we believe these topics are potentially testable entities, not because we have any knowledge about the frequency that they will show up on actual board exams.

Beautiful pathology. Thanks for sharing.

[@apurwadhanawalawithana997]

Can that be an early trophozoite instead of a ring of plasmodium vivax

[@GemechuEdema]

Very very excellent Learning

[@garanghwanchieny8968]

Yeah that's great

[@UsmanKhan-xv4le]

What types Stan use for your slide

[@JMGardnerMD]

I believe most of these blood smears are Wright Giemsa stain.

[@shuaibmohdbhat9223]

Field stain

[@queenikpokpo8008]

I believe it is a Giemsa stain because of how the red cell morphology is preserved

[@sunitasingh2296]

As per WHO we must stain with giemsa.
