title: Image processing in pathology. IX. A new morphometry system and its application on gangliocytes of the nucleus olivaris.
abstract: This paper describes a new software system for automatic image processing in pathology. The system is based on the hardware NU2/ODD/PDP8 and the thereby yielded results. The effectiveness of the system esp. its velocity has been essentially improved by a significant modification of the primary data sampling and by the new implementation of feature determination. The first application of this new system concerns age-dependent alterations of the gangliocytes in the nucleus olivaris.
