Quantitative image analysis was applied to data from microscope photometry of nuclei [from human uterine glands] in a paraffin section. The results from measurements on the nuclei of morphologically normal, atypical hyperplastic and carcinomatous uterine glands were used in discriminant analysis. With this method it is possible to discriminate between the 3 groups of nuclei. Depending on the (sub)set of the variables used, 60-70% of all nuclei are correctly classified in 1 of the 3 groups. Discrimination of 1 of the groups against the other 2 resulted in up to 81% correct classifications. Discriminant analysis offers a possibility of assisting diagnosis in an objective way.
