  1. aThe average number of stained cells was obtained from 18 biopsy specimens
  2. bThe number of the stained cells was obtained from an average of 15 high-power fields (× 400) in each case.
  3. *Case 20 was fixed very poorly and unrecognizable; case 15 was also not fixed very well. After serial sections, it became unrecognizable.
