A morphometric study of nuclei, nucleoli and nuclear bodies in goitres and papillary thyroid carcinomas.
Significant positive correlations were found between the nuclear surface-to-volume ratio and the volumetric density of nucleoli, as well as between the volumetric density of nucleoli and the volumetric and numerical densities of complex nuclear bodies in goitres and papillary thyroid carcinomas.
