Line 10:
Classical applications of stereology include:
* calculating the volume fraction of quartz in a rock by measuring the area fraction of quartz on a typical polished plane section of rock ("Delesse principle" from [[Achille Delesse]]);
* calculating the surface area of pores per unit volume in a ceramic, by measuring the length of profiles of pore boundary per unit area on a typical plane section of the ceramic (multiplied by <math>4/\pi</math>);
* calculating the total length of capillaries per unit volume of a biological tissue, by counting the number of profiles of capillaries per unit area on a typical histological section of the tissue (multiplied by 2).
Line 111:
* 1975–80 statisticians R.E. Miles and P.J. Davy show that stereology can be formulated as a survey sampling technique, and develop design-based methods.
* 1983 R.E Miles and (independently) [[Eva Vedel Jensen|E.B. Jensen]] and [[H.J.G. Gundersen]] develop ''point-sampled intercept'' methods for inferring the mean volume of arbitrarily-shaped particles from plane sections.
* 1984 D.C Sterio describes the 'disector' counting method.
Line 133:
* 2008 Gundersen, Gardi, Nyengaard introduce the [[proportionator]] method.
