Tips for studies with quantitative morphology (morphometry and stereology)

Int. j. morphol; 35 (4), 2017
SUMMARY: The quantitative morphology contributes to making the studies less subjective and reproducible. Quantitative results are analyzed with statistics and should be based on a well-defined sample. Quantitative variables can be 'continuous' or 'discrete.' In this text, the term 'morphometry' is used t...
