Abstract
The preceding chapter discussed the display of microscope images on a computer screen along with the superposition of grids and overlays. Interactive marking by a human able to recognize the various features present provides the input for the computer to tally the different counts, from which calculation of stereologically useful data can be carried out. The calculations are straightforward, usually requiring no more than a simple spreadsheet and often performed manually.
