Morphometry of spermatozoa using semiautomatic image analysis.

Abstract:

:Human sperm heads were detected and tracked using semiautomatic image analysis. Measurements of size and shape on two specimens from each of 26 men showed that the major component of variability both within and between subjects was the number of small elongated sperm heads. Variability of the computed features between subjects was greater than that between samples from the same subject.
