What are the Applications of Quantitative Measurement?

Quantitative measurement has numerous applications in histology, including:

Cancer Research: Quantifying tumor cell proliferation, apoptosis, and other markers to understand tumor behavior and response to treatment.
Neuroscience: Measuring neuronal density, dendritic length, and synaptic connections to study brain structure and function.
Cardiovascular Research: Assessing myocardial infarction size, fibrosis, and angiogenesis in heart tissue samples.
Drug Development: Evaluating the effects of new drugs on specific tissues and cellular structures.
