In this study, we aimed to describe the application of the Cavalieri principle for the assessment of tumor volume using MRI without an over-projection/estimation effect. For this purpose, the volume of a patient's brain ...

The quantification of linear biological objects is crucial in many biological studies. A number of different methods have been used in the past for the length and length density estimation of linear features. Due to the ...

Surface area and surface density are critical biological parameters, especially in organs such as the lungs, where the total available surface area affects the efficiency of gas exchange. Surface area estimation is widely ...

The purpose of the present study was to determine whether exposure of neonatal rats to formaldehyde (FA) had either early or delayed effects on the numbers of pyramidal cells in the cornu ammonis (CA) of the hippocampus. ...

Estimation of intracranial volume (ICV) using computed tomography (CT) scans has previously been described. However, we were not able to identify a gold standard study that analyzed the effect of section thickness on the ...

Objective: It is often useful to know the exact volume of the liver, such as in monitoring the effects of a disease, treatment, dieting regime, training program or surgical application. Some non-invasive methodologies have ...

This study was carried out to describe a simple, accurate and practical technique for estimating, the volume of intervertebral disc (ID) by the combination of the Cavalieri principle and computed tomography (CT) images. ...
