ABSTRACT
Quantitative analysis of histo- and cytochemical components such as DNA, RNA or chromatin pattern on one hand (cytometry) and the quantitative analysis of geometric non-chemical cell and tissue components (morphometry and sterology) on the other, have developed somewhat independently. Today, many different techniques, such as morphometry, sterology, and static image and flow cytometry are well established and routinely used in diagnostic quantitative pathology. The potential significance of these techniques in the individualization of care in cancer patients include the objective distinction between benign, borderline and malignant lesions, objective grading of invasive tumours, prediction of prognosis, and therapy response
