Abstract
At present, electron microscopy for classification of blastic cells has been replaced by immunological typing, which is faster and apparently more exact. On the other hand, conventional transmission electron microscopy remains the only procedure for investigation of various cell components within single cells, including abnormalities due to pathological processes or drug effects. In this area, electron microscopy cannot be replaced by any other procedure.
