Stereology: a working tool for cell biologists

Stereology estimates three-dimensional parameters of biological structures from two-dimensional pictures obtained in the electron microscope. The structural data can be combined with biochemical measurements to relate quantitatively cellular structures with their biochemical functions in vivo, or to...

Summary:Stereology estimates three-dimensional parameters of biological structures from two-dimensional pictures obtained in the electron microscope. The structural data can be combined with biochemical measurements to relate quantitatively cellular structures with their biochemical functions in vivo, or to describe the molecular architecture of cellular compartments.
