description

Given that angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis are strongly related to prognosis in neoplastic and other pathologies, and that some existing methods for their study provide different results, we aim to construct a morphometric tool to allow complete and accurate quantification and measurement of different aspects of the shape and size of vascular vessels.
