Figure 4

Projection images of a 4 μm fluorescent bead (A) segmented using the SCT algorithm (B) and Otsu's method (C). Since the object is known to be 4 μm in diameter and sphere-shaped, it is clear that the SCT algorithm selects a suitable threshold to delineate the bead. Otsu's method vastly undersegments the bead.
