Abstract

The study presents the developed algorithm of computer morphometry using the Image-Pro 4.5 software (Media Cybernetics, Inc., USA). The use of the Image-Pro 4.5 program in the morphological diagnosis of pathological changes in rat hippocampal neurons is demonstrated on the example of long-term forced chronic alcoholism. The obtained morphometric data serve as an objective assessment of absolute parameters of rat hippocampal neurons.
