AUTOMATED SYSTEM FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF 3D DISTRIBUTION OF NEURONS BASED ON SERIES OF IMAGES BRAIN SECTIONS

摘要

FIELD: information technology.;SUBSTANCE: system includes a unit for inputting digital 2D images of histological sections of substantia nigra with highlighted specific neurons, an image processing unit, a unit for displaying a 3D model of neuron distribution and a unit for storing images and formed models, all units connected with possibility of exchanging data and controlling the reconstruction process. The image processing unit includes a unit for superimposing layers, a unit for selecting neurons, a neuron clustering unit and a cluster adjustment unit.;EFFECT: constructing 3D models using a minimum number of images of histological sections using means of reducing images to a type for recognition of specific neurons and subsequent reconstruction of their 3D distributions.;3 cl, 12 dwg
