Back to Solutions Lab Overview

Determining the estimated volume fraction of a certain constituent or phase of interest in a sample can give you further insight into its properties. Point counting is a widely used and standard workflow for doing just that and predicts 3D information from a 2D cross-section.

To streamline this process, a workflow was created that combined several layers of customization and microscope control into a solution that is easy to use and ensures results that accommodate industry standards.
