Binary image thresholding is the most commonly used technique to quantitatively examine changes in immunolabelled material. In this article we demonstrate that if implicit assumptions predicating this technique are not met then the resulting analysis and data interpretation can be incorrect. We then propose a transparent approach to image quantification that is straightforward to execute using currently available software and therefore can be readily and cost-effectively implemented.

Over the past decade there has been an increasing tendency by mental health professionals and economists to evaluate programs in terms of costs and benefits. The current paper deals with some of the more important issues which should be accounted for when contemplating undertaking a cost benefit analysis or a cost effectiveness exercise in the area of psychiatric rehabilitation.
