  "term": "Stereology",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A body of mathematical methods for estimating three-dimensional properties of objects from two-dimensional sections or projections. This technique allows for quantitative analysis of microstructural features, such as volume, surface area, and number of particles. It is applied in fields like histology and materials science to characterize complex structures.",
