✦ Synopsis
A FORTR ~,N computer program, running on a Digital PDP 11-34 minicomputer, has been developed h~r use an conjunctiol with a Cambridge Quantimet 720 image analyzer for the investigation of metaphase preparations in routine cytogenetics. During a short initiation phase the program is adapted to the type of metapha,,e being analyzed. lhe program is fast and its performance is good, even at low micro.~opic magnifications. It ha.,, other u~s in biology for all investigations and characterizations of groups of small distinct element~, widely spread within a preparation (e.g., autoradiography, bacteriology).
