Figure 1.

(a, b) Stereologic cell counts of the ophthalmic division of the TGG in a rabbit. Use of the physical dissector method where the micrographs of the same fields of view (a, b) were taken from two parallel, adjacent thin sections separated by 5 μm. The numerical density of the neurons was calculated as NvGN= ∑Q – N/t × A. In this application, the nucleoli marked as ‘2,3,4,8’ are dissector particles in A. Section B shows them as they disappeared. The nucleoli marked as ‘1,5,6,7’ do not represent dissector particles in A. Section B shows ‘1 and 8’ as they disappeared (H and E, 100, LM)
