  • Title: [Biometric studies in the cytological diagnosis of soft tissue tumors].
    Author: Gafton GI.
    Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1979; 25(1):16-9. PubMed ID: 425392.
    Abstract:
    Introducing of quantitative signs (the number of cells on the given area, size of cells, nuclei, optic and spectral characteristics) makes the cytologic diagnosis much more objective. Karyometric studies conducted by the author (the determination of nuclei volume) on cytological smears, obtained from 16 patients with soft tissue tumors, indicated some difference in nuclei size of various histotypes. The studies have evidenced that the method of karyometry associated with cytophotometry will offer the pre-conditions for using karyometry in the practice of pathocytologists and facilitate the finding of algorithms for computing analysis of soft tissue neoplasms.
