X-ray microanalysis--a method for determination of elements in bladder biopsies.

R Friedrichs, W G Burchard

    Urologia Internationalis
    |January 1, 1987
    PubMed
    Summary

    This study analyzes chemical elements in normal human urothelium and transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) biopsies using X-ray microanalysis and scanning electron microscopy. The findings will help compare elemental differences in TCC of varying stages and grades.
