The extent of elastosis in the stroma within the anatomical "tumour" in 80 patients with breast carcinoma was assessed by observational microscopy using a 4-point grading system, and measured by semiautomated histometry as an area percentage with a Quantimet 720 image-analysing computer. In this retrospective study, measurement of elastosis in tissue removed at time of initial diagnosis was shown to have little value for prediction of duration of survival.
采用4分分级系统，通过观察显微镜对80例乳腺癌患者解剖学“肿瘤”内基质中的弹性组织变性程度进行评估，并使用Quantimet 720图像分析计算机通过半自动组织测量法将其作为面积百分比进行测量。在这项回顾性研究中，结果显示在初次诊断时所取组织中弹性组织变性的测量对于预测生存期几乎没有价值。
