3Gout Examination Procedure

Slider insertion direction

1. Engage the 40X objective in the light path.

2. If the condenser in use is equipped with a top lens, engage it

in the light path.

3. Set the -plate rotation lever of the U-GAN to the center posi-

tion ( · ). Look into the eyepiece and rotate the polarizer to the

darkest position.

4. Rotate the stage or specimen so that the longitudinal direction

of the crystals is in parallel with the -axis @.

At this time, the -axis direction of the -plate should be iden-

tical to the longitudinal direction of crystals.

5. Rotate the -plate rotation lever of the U-GAN fully counter-

clockwise ( ) and diagnose the gout.

Crystals are yellow Sodium urate (Gout crystal)

Crystals are blue Potassium pyrophosphate (Pseudogout crystal)

6. Rotate the -plate rotation lever of the U-GAN fully clock-

wise ( ) so that the longitudinal direction of crystal is

perpendicular to the -axis ². The examination result can be

confirmed by referring to the reversal of the color.

4Other Observations

Brightfield Observation

Loosen the clamping knob of the revolving nosepiece clamping the U-GAN, pull out the U-GAN and stop at a click

position. (Tighten the clamping knob there.)

Now the -plate is disengaged from the light path so brightfield observation is available.

Other

Set the -plate rotation lever of the U-GAN to the center position ( · ) for simple polarized light observation. However, the

contrast of the observed image may be poor because of the presence of the -plate.
