This paper describes a system for in vitro cell migration analysis. Adult neural stem/progenitor cells are studied using time-lapse microscopy and thereafter stained immunohistochemically to find and distinguish between undifferentiated glial progenitor cells and cells having differentiated into type-1 or type-2 astrocytes. The cells are automatically segmented and tracked throughout the time-laps...Show More
Contrast-echocardiography in conjunction with real-time video-densiometry can be an effective means of studying right ventricular (RV) structural changes, e.g. in patients diagnosed with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD). In order to characterize RV flow pattern it may be necessary to track the front of the contrast agent as it enters the RV. The active contour model (ACM) is a sta...Show More
