Peter H. Bartels · Cancer · 1992
Image analysis provides quantitative data on morphology, cytochemical and histochemical reactions, the location of specific events or reaction sites, and statistical descriptions of the spatial distribution of such events relative to histologic structure. Image analytic methodology in correlation with histopathologic knowledge bases is an essential component in the development of an objective basis for histopathologic diagnostic decision making.
