title: [Use of mineralogic methods for examination of human tissues. I. Methods of mineralogic examination].
abstract: Pathologic mineralization in the human body may produce severe morbidity. Application of mineralogic methods of investigation makes possible closer cognizance of this process, and facilitates prophylaxis and treatment. The principles and employment of following methods are discussed: polarized light microscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, atomic absorption spectroscopy, electron microprobe, and neutron activation analysis.
