About the photograph:
“Love Under the Microscope” by Dalila Villalobos
As
pathologists in training, we are constantly reminded that both human
cellular responses and the most deadly medical conditions can be
unexpectedly beautiful
under the microscope. We are trained to be detail oriented and to
understand disease in all its forms because abnormalities will only
present to the eye that knows what to look for. This photo captures a
normal prostatic gland with its characteristic double
layer and irregular branching. The moment we diagnose a benign
condition in a patient that is anxiously awaiting results is always
rewarding. But, if, on top of that, we see heart-shape glands, it is
inspiration.
