Thrombin generation assay and transmission electron microscopy: a useful combination to study tissue factor-bearing microvesicles

Introduction. Patients with cancer have a 7- to 10-fold increased risk of developing venous thromboembolism. Circulating microvesicles could be a useful predictive biomarker for venous thromboembolism in cancer. Validated and standardised techniques that could be used to determine the complete micro...
