Capillaries of the nail wall skin are the most convenient objects for investigation in a live man. Over 2500 investigations were carried out, which demonstrated, that, despite a marked variability of morphometric parameters, the contour of capillary loops on each subject is individual, this recommending capillaroscopy of the skin as a method for personality identification.
