title: Quantitative multivariate analysis of myoepithelioma and myoepithelial carcinoma.
abstract: The nuclear DNA content and morphologic data of 30 surgical samples (eight normal parotid gland, 12 myoepithelioma, and 10 myoepithelial carcinoma) were analyzed by the IBAS II analysis system. The results suggest that there are relationships between tumor ploidy distribution and prognosis, and that correct pathologic diagnosis can be obtained by the IBAS image system.
