Automated image-analysis method for the quantification of fiber morphometry and fiber type population in human skeletal muscle

Automated image-analysis method for the quantification of fiber morphometry and fiber type population in human skeletal muscle

Abstract Background The quantitative analysis of muscle histomorphometry has been growing in importance in both research and clinical settings. Accurate and stringent assessment of myofibers’ changes in size and number, and alterations in the proportion of oxidative (type I) and glycolytic (type II)...
