Image-Analysis-Based Method for 3D Crystal Morphology Measurement and Polymorph Identification Using Confocal Microscopy
A new technique for the measurement of 3D crystal morphology and identification of its polymorph using tomographic images is proposed. Confocal microscopy is used for the first time to obtain tomographic images of crystals that are coated with a suitable fluorescent dye. A convex polyhedron is fitted through a stack of tomographic images of a crystal to obtain the normal vectors of each facet a...
متن کاملSurface Visualisation and 3D Feature Analysis in Confocal Microscopy Images
Chondrons form the fundamental biomechanical and metabolic unit of articular cartilage. But there is no accurate description of chondron volume which is known to change when articular cartilage is functionally loaded. This report discusses the 3D feature analysis of the confocal microscopy images of chondrons. The basic principle of confocal microscopy is described. The segmentation problem of ...
متن کاملAlgorithms for accurate 3D registration of neuronal images acquired by confocal scanning laser microscopy.
This paper presents automated and accurate algorithms based on high-order transformation models for registering three-dimensional (3D) confocal images of dye-injected neurons. The algorithms improve upon prior methods in several ways, and meet the more stringent image registration needs of applications such as two-view attenuation correction recently developed by us. First, they achieve high ac...
متن کاملUnwarping confocal microscopy images of bee brains by nonrigid registration to a magnetic resonance microscopy image.
Confocal microscopy (CM) is a powerful image acquisition technique that is well established in many biological applications. It provides 3-D acquisition with high spatial resolution and can acquire several different channels of complementary image information. Due to the specimen extraction and preparation process, however, the shapes of imaged objects may differ considerably from their in vivo...
متن کاملReconstruction from Fluorescence Confocal Microscopy Images
The fluorescence confocal microscopy is one of the most important tools in biomedical and pharmaceutic research. The main advantage of this technique over the traditional optical microscopy is the fact that it allows the selection of a thin cross-section of the sample by rejecting the visual information coming from the out of focus planes. Additionally, it uses fluorescence synthetic molecules ...
