MIOT, Hélio Amante  and  BRIANEZI, Gabrielli. Morphometric analysis of dermal collagen by color clusters segmentation. An. Bras. Dermatol. [online]. 2010, vol.85, n.3, pp. 361-364. ISSN 0365-0596.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0365-05962010000300010.

Morphometric analysis of dermal collagen can provide quantitative support to dermatologic research. The authors of this article disclose a technique of digital image analysis which allows the identification of microscopic structures by color cluster segmentation regarding the estimate intensity and density of dermal collagen fibers.
