title: [Application possibilities of an automatic image analyzer ("Quantimet 720") in bone histomorphometry].
abstract: By the way of proofing of the preventive estrogen effect on the ovariectomy osteoporosis in rats the authors collected experiences in measuring of two histomorphometric parameters "trabecular bone volume" and "trabecular bone surface" with the automatic image analyser Quantimet 720. This method demands thin bone polishes or cuts, a very rich in contrast and selective colouring. The measurement with this device spares time and gives reliable results for "trabecular bone volume", but less reliable values for "trabecular bone surface".
