Megakaryocytes in rabbit pulmonary blood vessels

|August 1, 1987
Abstract:
Semiserial sections of lung capillaries of seven rabbits were examined for megakaryocytes. Triads of serial sections of each lobe were examined, and megakaryocyte counts per cm2 were determined. Median megakaryocyte count was determined for each lobe. The lobal values were used to calculate the was determined for each lobe. The lobal values were used to calculate the median cell-counts for each experimental animal. Values of 0.16-0.64 megakaryocytes per cm2 were established as "normal".
