Kidney Glomeruli Electron Microscopy. Experience with a three hour electron microscopy biopsy service. Electron microscopy is needed in the early stages to detect the glomerular basement membrane thickening but it becomes appreciable by light microscopy when the thickness is increased 4 times.
A way to obtain glomeruli for morphological study. The pathogenesis of alport s syndrome is not known. Later histologic findings are controversial and the site of early pathologic change in the kidney has been obscure.
It bears mentioning that the slight diaphragm is only visible by electron microscopy.
Electron microscopy of the amphibian renal glomerulus. Fine structures of the kidney seen by electron microscopy. The pathogenesis of alport s syndrome is not known. Electron microscopy of the marsupial renal glomerulus.
