There exists in the literature a core of formulations regarded as 'the basic stereological principles' for quantifying cell and tissue morphology. They may be used to obtain information relating component volume, surface area, length and number to a specified containing volume (the so-called component densities in a volume: VV, SV, MV and NV). However, principles may also be formulated for relating these component dimensions to a containing surface (SS, MS and NS), containing length (MM and NM) and a containing number (NN). Methods for estimating these previously neglected stereological relations are presented. Possible biological applications of the principles are also discussed.
文献中存在一系列公式核心内容，被视为用于量化细胞和组织形态的“基本体视学原理”。它们可用于获取与特定包含体积相关的组分体积、表面积、长度和数量的信息（即体积中的所谓组分密度：VV、SV、MV和NV）。然而，也可以制定原理，将这些组分尺寸与包含表面（SS、MS和NS）、包含长度（MM和NM）以及包含数量（NN）相关联。本文介绍了估计这些先前被忽视的体视学关系的方法。还讨论了这些原理可能的生物学应用。
