Abstract:
Electron microscopy, although not able to solve all diagnostic dilemmas, is an essential adjunct to the analysis of pathologic processes. The importance of correct specimen handling for ultrastructural study is highlighted. Some diseases encountered in pediatrics, in which the ultrastructural findings are well established, are illustrated. New technologies that show promise for wider application to problems in pathology also are considered in this article.
