High-power field
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
A high-power field (HPF), when used in relation to microscopy, references to the area visible under the maximum magnification power of the objective being used. Often, this represents a 400-fold magnification when referenced in scientific papers.
The area provides a reference unit, for example in reference ranges for urine tests.[1]
