Abstract:
The current study compares images of mesenchymal tumors produced by foldscope and traditional microscope. A total of 100 biopsy samples were analyzed, out of which 29 cases of mesenchymal tumors were found, included five cases of hemangiosarcoma and lipoma, four cases each of leiomyosarcoma, osteosarcoma, fibroma, fibrosarcoma and three cases of chondrosarcoma. Notably, the foldscope utilized in this study had a magnification equivalent to 200X of conventional microscope. The results of this study underscore the effectiveness of foldscope as a dependable diagnostic instrument for the swift and precise examination of mesenchymal tumors. This advancement holds the potential to accelerate the diagnosis of such tumors, providing substantial advantages to both clinical practice and patient care.
