    This study explores ultrastructural morphometry in isolated cells, offering a versatile model for pathologists. It details methods for analyzing cell samples, crucial for understanding normal and diseased states.

    Area of Science:

    • Cell Biology
    • Pathology
    • Stereology

    Background:

    • Isolated cells offer a valuable experimental model for ultrastructural morphometry in pathology.
    • A key advantage is the applicability of consistent sampling regimes to both normal and pathologically altered cells.
    • This contrasts with other model systems where sampling may need adjustment based on cellular condition.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review methodologies for analyzing isolated cells, including free and cultured cells.
    • To define general concerns in cell analysis, such as preparation, sampling, stereological parameter selection, and error sources.
    • To present generalized and specific morphometric models for cell types like mononuclear phagocytes and lymphocytes.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of preparative techniques for isolated cells.
