Assessment of the number of islets in the ten cases. (A) Pancreas tissue density. (B) Representative islets from small to large in size. (C) Fraction of islet size distribution (gray bar) and total islet area (red line). (D) The estimated number of islets in each bin. (E) Estimated number of IEQ (i.e. the unit of standardized islet mass used in clinical islet transplantation to assess the yield of isolated islets from donor pancreata) and islets with a diameter greater than 40 µm in the ten cases. (F) Summary of the islet numbers.
