Efficient, interactive, and three-dimensional segmentation of cell nuclei in thick tissue sections.
Segmentation of intact cell nuclei in three-dimensional (3D) images of thick tissue sections is an important basic capability necessary for many biological research studies. Because automatic algorithms do not correctly segment all nuclei in tissue sections, interactive algorithms may be preferable for some applications. Existing interactive segmentation algorithms require the analyst to draw a...
متن کاملDNA Measurement of Overlapping Cell Nuclei in Thick Tissue Sections
The paper describes an improved image analysis procedure for measuring the DNA content of cell nuclei in thick sections of liver tissue by absorption densitometry. Whereas previous methods only permitted the analysis of isolated nuclei, the new technique enables both isolated and overlapping nuclei to be measured. A 3D segmentation procedure determines whether each object is an isolated nucleus...
متن کاملSegmentation of confocal microscope images of cell nuclei in thick tissue sections.
Segmentation of intact cell nuclei from three-dimensional (3D) images of thick tissue sections is an important basic capability necessary for many biological research studies. However, segmentation is often difficult because of the tight clustering of nuclei in many specimen types. We present a 3D segmentation approach that combines the recognition capabilities of the human visual system with t...
متن کاملTomographic three-dimensional reconstruction of cilia ultrastructure from thick sections.
We have applied a computer-based tomographic technique to reconstruct the three-dimensional ultrastructure of newt lung cilia. Epon-embedded samples were cut into 0.25-micron-thick sections that were imaged at 1 MV with a high-voltage electron microscope. For the reconstruction shown, a tilt series of 53 micrographs was taken at tilt angles between -54 degrees and +50 degrees. The reconstructio...
