STEREOLOGY AND 3D MICROSCOPY: USEFUL ALTERNATIVES OR COMPETITORS IN THE QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF MICROSTRUCTURES?

With the rapid development of modern techniques for producing 3D images, the assessment of 3D geometry from 2D sections of projections by stereological methods seems to become more and more redundant. The paper aims to show the limits of the two approaches and to outline their relative advantages in...
