چکیده

The principle that formed the basis of the most popular "assumption based" stereological methods for counting cells that were available prior to the advent of the more recently developed "design based" methods will be described in general terms. The major weaknesses inherent in the older methods will be described, along with how they have been eliminated by the design based methods.

Stereological Estimation of Granule Cell Number and Purkinje Cell Volume in the Cerebellum of Noise-Exposed Young Rat

In spite of the existing reports on behavioural and biochemical changes related to the cerebellum due to noise stress, not much is known about the effect of noise stress on the neuronal changes in the cerebellum. The present study aims at investigating the effects from one week noise exposure on granule cell number and Purkinje cell volume within the neonate rat cerebellum.15-day-old male Wista...
