6
The modern diagnosis about blood and urine Equipment improvement Light microscopy Electron microscopy Immunohistological examination Cytological examination
7
Urinalysis Macroscopic urinalysis -- color, texture, etc (as past) Urine chemical analysis --PH, specific gravity, protein, glucose, etc Microscopic urinalysis --RBC, WBC, bacteria, yeast, crystal, etc
8
Three urine samples are shown. The one at the left shows a red, cloudy appearance. The one in the center is red but clear. The one on the right is yellow, but cloudy. Macroscopic urinalysis

Microscopic urinalysis These white blood cells in urine have lobed nuclei and refractile cytoplasmic granules.
