	Use of Computerised Image Analysis for Objective Monitoring of Haemosiderin Quantities

		Of the Ramphastidae, toco toucans (Ramphastos toco) are one of the species particularly susceptible to hemochromatosis, which is a common cause of death of captive birds and a possible significant factor in the infrequency of successful captive breeding (Cornelissen and Ritchie 1994, Lowenstine and Munson 1999).
		The aim of the current study was determine whether reductions occurred in hepatocellular iron levels in two toco toucans with hemochromatosis over an 8 month period of dietary modification, by histologic image analysis of liver biopsy specimens.
