title: An ultrastructural morphometric analysis of normal human mammary tissue and human breast cancer.
abstract: An ultrastructural morphometric study of normal and tumourous adult human mammary tissue is presented. The data show a characteristic numerical pattern for the different neoplastic stages of breast tissues. By applying a special data-comparison program a standardized diagnostic and prognostic system appears possible through the morphometric analysis of ultrathin epon sections of surgically obtained material.
