Technology
Technique of electron microscopy in which the specimen is coated with heavy metal and then scanned by an electron beam. The resolution is not as great as with transmission electron microscopy, but preparation is easier (often by fixation followed by critical point drying), the depth of focus is relatively enormous, the surface of a specimen can be seen (though not the interior unless the specimen is cracked open) and the image is aesthetically pleasing.
Diagnostic Methods
Technology
An electron microscopy imaging technique that is utilized to examine structural components of a sample by passing electrons through the specimen.
Diagnostic Methods
Tests

Tests
The determination of the amount of activated lymphocytes in a biological specimen.
For professionals
Indicators
A measurement of the length of time that it takes for clotting to occur when activating reagents are added to a plasma specimen. The test is partial due to the absence of tissue factor (Factor III) from the reaction mixture.
Tests
A measurement of the resistance in the anticoagulation response to activated protein C in a biological specimen.
