Images |
The image module is used to compile the images for analysis. |
Metadata |
The Metadata module allows to extract information describing your images (i.e., metadata). |
NamesAndTypes |
The NamesAndTypes module allows to assign a meaningful name to each image by which other modules will refer to it. |
IdentifyPrimaryObjects |
The nuclei are identified based on Hoechst staining. Nuclei at the border of the image are removed as well as objects not matching the size and intensity criteria (threshold). |
IdentifyPrimaryObjects |
The TMRM staining is identified. Objects not matching the size and intensity criteria (threshold) are excluded. |
IdentifySecondaryObjects |
Cell edges are defined based on the previously selected nuclei, here defined as “Cell”. |
RelateObjects |
TMRM objects (child object) are associated with the previously defined Cell objects (parent object). This enables to calculate mean measurement values for TMRM associated to the Cell. |
MeasureImageAreaOccupied |
The area occupied by previously identified objects is measured (DNA, Cells and TMRM). |
MeasureObjectIntensity |
TMRM intensity is calculated in relation to the cell. Additional intensity parameters can be chosen (e.g., intensity of the nuclei). |
MeasureObjectSizeShape |
Additional output parameter for size and shape of the objects can be chosen. |
ExportToSpreadsheet |
Output results and storage location are defined. |
