The methods, illustrated by twenty solved case studies, are based on properly sampled slices, sections, or projections of the material, observable under light, laser, or electron microscopy, or under non-invasive radiological devices such as ecography, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging. Thus, the input usually consists of flat images, and the output consists of relevant quantities defined in three dimensions. Stereology is the discipline of providing sampling designs which warrant unbiased estimation of the corresponding quantities, that is, estimation with zero mean deviation from the target. Sampling is usually systematic (i.e., with regularly spaced probes), and sparse (as opposed to reconstructions) and it is thereby efficient and easy to implement..Stereology is essentially geometric sampling, grounded on integral geome | 出版日期 | Book 2024 | 关键词 | integral geometry; geometric sampling; stereology; variance predictors; statistics | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-52451-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-52453-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-52451-6Series ISSN 0939-6047 Series E-ISSN 2196-9973 | issn_series | 0939-6047 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
