Development of automated image processing procedure for cell-arrays

摘要

In many cases of biological observations such as cell arrays, DNA microarrays or tissue microscopy, primary data are obtained as photographs. Specialized processing methods are needed for each kinds of photographs because they have very wide variety, and often needed automated systems for modern high-throughput observations. We developed a fully-automated image processing system for cell array, high-throughput time-series observation system for living cells, to evaluate gene expression levels and phenotype changes in time.
