I'm writing a manuscript about histology of a marine fish and I come across various way of presenting (e.g. mode, diameter, component) and this makes me think which is the best.
I think, if your target is only normal morphology (Histology) you can go for diameter measuring, however cellular compartment is also valuable, but it's more significant in case of some pathological lesions, such as degeneration, necrosis, apoptosis, ect....
Diameter and components cellular. You need work some software for cell count ?. This for quantitative and qualitative analysis. , (e.g. morphological description, types, size and cells number etc.).
