Practical Stereology, Paperback / softback Book

Practical Stereology Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Stereology is the science that relates three-dimensional structure to the two-dimensional images that can be measured.

The most common field of application is in microscopy, both of man-made materials (metals, ceramics, composites, etc.) and of biological tissue samples.

This book covers the applications and terminology of both fields.

Recent emphasis in stereology is concerned with sampling strategies to avoid bias due to directionality and non-uniformity, and these methods are fully covered.

So are the classic techniques that measure size distributions, surface curvature, etc., which are widely useful but not discussed in other recent texts.

Finally, most stereology is taught as manual procedures using counting and grids, but this text also covers the use of modern desktop computers for image analysis and processing to obtain and interpret the stereological data.
