Statistical image analysis and escort histograms in characterization of articular cartilage repair in a skeleton animal model.

Statistical image analysis of an ensemble of digital images of histological samples is performed as an auxiliary investigation a result of the recently proposed method of articular cartilage repair utilizing growth plate chondrocytes in a skeleton animal model. A fixed-shift model of maximal likelih...
