Abstrakt     This review article consists of three parts. The first part briefly defines stereology as a method for quantitative estimation of the three dimensional inner structure of bodies on the basis of the two dimensional sections of these bodies. The second part briefly describes the histological and cytological structure of mammalian myocardium presented by a hierarchical model. The third part summarizes some sample articles dealing with cardiological problems and using stereological methods. Human research on autoptic and bioptic material is presented, as well as animal research on rats and other mammals, stressing the experimental investigations, which are of interest for theory and practice in human cardiology.
