Abstract
Two methods for embedding human transbronchial biopsy material are discussed. This is the first application of these methods to the study of lung pathology. The first uses hydroxyethyl methacrylate; the 2nd an epoxy resin first described by Spurr in 1969. Both techniques are applicable to larger biopsies or postmortem material with appropriate minor modifications.Keywords
