Planet earth? Not quite, ciprofloxacin crystal under polarized light, 400x magnification, suspected role in AKI, case of @SwethaKanduriMD #UrinarySediment #UrineMicroscopy #NephroArt #astronomy #PisseProphet

Desktop wallpaper update mode. Enjoying the view. Reenergized for some work ahead. #UrinarySediment #PisseProphet #NephroArt #nephrocentic #UrineMicroscopy #MyOffice

Granular cast, hyaline cast and ciprofloxacin crystal, dark field illumination, w/wo polarized light, SM-stained; AKI. #UrinarySediment #UrineMicroscopy #PisseProphet @OchsnerNephro #NephroArt

Distinct cracked renal tubular waxy cast in the #UrinarySediment SM-stained, dark field. RBC, RTEC, transitional cells and debris noted. AKI, rhabdo-induced toxic ATN suspected. @OchsnerNephro #UrineMicroscopy #NephroArt

Uric acid crystals at 3 different levels of polarization. #UrinarySediment #NephroArt #Geometry #Diamonds Urine pH 5.0

Bilirubin-stained, SM-stained #UrinarySediment of pt with AKI ESLD TBili 45 w/granular cast containing renal tubular epithelial cells (RTEC) and some free-floating RTEC nearby. ⁦@HrsHarmony⁩ #NephroArt #UrineMicroscopy

Her first jab at #UrineMicroscopy and she managed to capture a squamous epi cell w/a rare “hollow” cast in dark field. At the age of 16, I barely managed to toss my underwear in a basket #jobshadow #daughteratwork #proudpapi #nephroArt

When your daughter is in your office and upgrades the art in your teaching board #nephrocentric #nephroArt #daughteratwork #jobshadow #proudpapi

Asteroides? Nah. Starch granules (talc powder) contaminating a #UrinarySediment specimen #PisseProphet #nephroArt

A #UrinarySediment in the context of AKI full of squamous epithelial cells is always disappointing, #poorspecimen #badsample, but, one can always create a starry sky out of it. #nephroArt #galaxy

Bright colorful crystalline structures in hyperbilirubinuric AKI #UrinarySediment under dark field illumination. ⁦@HrsHarmony⁩ #PisseProphet #NephroArt ⁦@OchsnerNephro⁩

Aerial view of Egyptian pyramids floating around a peninsula? Nah. #UrinarySediment with bilirubin-stained granular cast and calcium oxalate dihydrate crystals in the vicinity visualized with a “relief image” effect. #UrineMicroscopy #MedEd #NephroArt

#UrinarySediment with findings suggestive of acute tubular injury, photo captured with “relief image” effect #PisseProphet #NephroArt #UrinaryCasts ⁦@UROCUP1⁩

Incredible piece of art from our talented faculty @MunerMohamed1 that is now decorating the walls of our @OchsnerNephro department. It perfectly illustrates the cohesiveness and solidarity of our team. Zoom in to read inside the medullary pyramids #NephroArt #nephrocentric

Last #UrinarySediment of the week: from a case of AKI, cholestasis, hepatitis A, SM-stained. Dark field and bright field microscopy showing coarse granular and renal tubular cell casts, ATN. @OchsnerNephro #PisseProphet #nephroart #liquidkidneybiopsy

Granular cast with embedded fat droplets. Pt with secondary podocyte effacement. #UrinarySediment under bright field, polarized light and dark field microscopy. #PisseProphet #MedEd #NephroArt

Long convoluted waxy cast in the #UrinarySediment of a pt with glomerular disease and 40% IFTA (L: bright field, R: dark field; SM-stained). #PisseProphet #NephroArt #nephropic #UrineMicroscopy

Sweet #Xmas present from my daughter. Carbon drawings over 2 of my publications. They’re going straight to my office wall. #nephroart #bestdaughterever #papiestafeliz #whattapresent #feelingspoiled #buddingartist #glomerulus #reinsarethebrains
