FIELD: light and electronic engineering; confocal laser microscopy; computer, magnetic-resonance, and ultrasonic tomography. SUBSTANCE: method intended for stereologic analysis of dimensional distributions of objects described in shape by elliptical cylinders includes determination of object sectional profile and dimensional distribution of object sectional profiles obtained which is approximated by specifying distribution of dimension (or dimensions) and distribution of angles describing relative disposition of objects and planes of section. EFFECT: enhanced precision, comfort, and availability of stereologic analysis. 6 cl, 13 dwg, 1 tbl
