SUMMARY This paper describes a method by which automatic image analysis can be applied to the study of size distributions of small (< 5 nm) radiation induced bubbles. Statistically valid results are obtained directly from transmission electron microscope negatives and the optimum imaging conditions for obtaining reliable data are discussed.
