STEREOLOGICAL CHALLENGES WHEN WORKING WITH HEART MUSCLE FIBRES
This contribution is based on a series of studies, where stereological methods were applied to hearts from rats treated with growth hormone. A method to estimate the total number of cardiac myocytes is described and, furthermore, length estimates of heart muscle fibres are discussed.
