title: [Cytometric characterization of the cell nucleus and nucleolus apparatus in dysplasia and exocervical cancer of the cervix uteri].
abstract: The morphometric parameters of the nucleonucleolar apparatus of the intact stratified squamous epithelium of the cervix uteri, dysplasias, and exocervical cancer were studied by computed morphometry of 50% silver nitrate solution-stained cytological specimens in order to study nucleolar organizers. It was shown that dysplastic changes and malignant transformation were marked by a progressive increase in the values of morphometric parameters of its nucleonucleolar apparatus. The staining of nucleolar organizers is relatively simple and it is expedient to use it for a specifying cytological diagnosis. The advantage of the staining is to identify rare atypical cells in cytological specimens.
