Male fertility depends not only upon the number of spermatozoa as determined by an actual sperm count, and their locomotive ability, but also upon normal sperm structure. Therefore, if a clinician plans to make a conscientious investigation of fertility he should be capable of differentiating between normal and abnormal sperm.

Cytology of the Human Spermatozoon

Walter W. Williams, M.D.


Male fertility depends not only upon the number of spermatozoa as determined by an actual sperm count, and their locomotive ability, but also upon normal sperm structure. Therefore, if a clinician plans to make a conscientious investigation of fertility he should be capable of differentiating between normal and abnormal sperm.
