=====================
Performing object tracking/motility studies with the goal of
statistically quantifying motion can be a daunting task. Living cells, for
example, may cross the paths of other cells, make contact with other objects,
move outside of the imaging volume, or undergo cell division during an
experiment. Further complications are introduced when attempting to image
especially delicate specimens under demanding conditions where image quality may
be suboptimal. Extracting accurate measurements from such data sets
requires careful attention to all experimental parameters and the assistance of
powerful image processing and analysis tools that are designed for such
studies.
Attendees will see how such
studies can be performed with 2D time series data and on 4D (3D volume over
time) image sets and will be shown some of the many measurements (e.g. velocity
and displacement) that can be performed on both individual objects and on entire
populations.
Bring your questions to this live, interactive web-based
seminar.
Subjects include:
- Collecting high-quality
images
- Enhancing images for accurate identification of objects
- Performing motion analysis on individual
objects
- Performing motion analysis on large populations
of objects
- Performing motion analysis of objects in a 3D
volume
- Capturing and
logging measurement data
- Archival and
databasing of images
Provided at no cost, this webinar is sponsored
by MAG, the Microimaging Applications
Group. MAG
is a group of imaging companies who work together to provide an
unparalleled range of microimaging solutions to science and industry.
