The distinction of malignant mesothelioma from tumors metastatic to the serosal membranes can often be made based on the results of histochemical or immunohistochemical studies. However, in some cases, these techniques are inadequate to make a firm diagnosis. In these instances, electron microscopic studies with the observation of a constellation of characteristic ultrastructural findings may permit an unequivocal diagnosis of mesothelioma.
恶性间皮瘤与转移至浆膜的肿瘤之间的鉴别通常可依据组织化学或免疫组织化学研究结果来进行。然而，在某些情况下，这些技术不足以做出确切诊断。在这些情形中，通过观察一系列特征性超微结构发现的电子显微镜研究可能有助于对间皮瘤做出明确诊断。
