  abstract = {A new method using grey-scale functions, asymptotic fractals (Rigaut
	1984) and the Minkowski (1901) dilation/erosion, produces two graph
	asymptotes, one having a slope of 1 and the other a slope of D(T)-D+1
	(where D(T) is the topological dimension and D the fractal dimension).The
	method allows an evaluation of scaling properties of a grey-scale
	image, estimation of D without iteration and analysis of fractal
	texture models.Images from cultured MCF7 cells of cytoskeleton intermediate
	filaments serve as example.},
