Live-cell imaging is a highly used technique to study cell migration and dynamics over time. Although many computational tools have been developed during the past years automatically detect track cells, they are optimized nuclei with similar shapes and/or cells not clustering together. These existing challenged when tracking fluorescently labelled membranes of due cell's irregular shape, variab...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) cell tracking of cancer cells labeled with superparamagnetic iron oxides (SPIO) allows visualizing metastatic cells in preclinical models. However, previous works showed that the signal void induced by SPIO on T2(*)-weighted images decreased over time. Here, we aim at characterizing the fate of iron oxide nanoparticles used in cell tracking studies and the role ...
