Overview
Historical Perspective
- In 1854, Rudolph Virchow introduced the term of amyloid as an macroscopic abnormality in some tissues.[1]
- In 1922, Bennhold introduced Congo red staining of amyloid that remains the gold standard for diagnosis.[2]
- In 1959, ultrathin sections of amyloidotic tissues were assessed by electron microscopic examination, revealed the presence of fibrils with indeterminate length and variable width.[1]
