[Histonet] cardio myocyte histomorpometry

[Elizabeth Chlipala]

Patsy

I believe most reference just measure the diameter of the myocyte
through the center.  A regular H&E should work.  You can use an ocular
micrometer or take a digital image and use a image analysis program.
That's what we have done in the past.

We want to measure the size of cardio myocytes.  The investigator heard
tell of a "Silver" stain used for this but he doesn't know what silver
stain. What is recommended?  This will be done using a computerized
image analysis system. Thanks in advance, Patsy
