Figure 2 Photomicrographs of the cone and platelet analyzer results in a representative tirofiban-abciximab patient. This method assesses platelet deposition at a high shear rate, and the results are expressed as the percentage of total surface covered by platelets. Micrograph (A) was taken at baseline (12.1% coverage), (B) after tirofiban bolus (2.2% coverage) and (C) after abciximab bolus, when tirofiban was still being infused (0.1% coverage). All micrographs were taken at magnification x10.
