Advances in Stereology for Neuroscience

TRAMA

This volume discusses the latest advancements used in various stereological methods to study different neural structures. The chapters in this book cover topics such as microglia measurements, estimation of axonal length, morphological analysis of large nuclei such as the human caudate nucleus, assessments of tissue damage after spinal cord injury in rodents, and the application of automatic stereological methods and artificial intelligence to neural tissue. In the Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory. Cutting-edge and comprehensive, Advances in Stereology for Neuroscience is a valuable resource for researchers who are interested in learning more about this important and developing field.
