Abstract:
Transmission electron microscopy has been found to be of greater value than scanning electron microscopy in the differential diagnosis of mesothelial reaction, malignant mesothelioma and metastatic carcinoma. It is possible to remove identified cells from slides for transmission electron microscopy, and this is particularly valuable when an urgent diagnosis is required.
