Combining Nonlinear Image Registration and Active Contours for Cell Tracking

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Informatik aktuell ((INFORMAT))

Abstract

Continuous analysis of multi-cellular systems at the single cell level in space and time is one of the fundamental tools in cell biology and experimental medicine to study the mechanisms underlying tissue formation, regeneration and disease progression. We present an approach to cell tracking using nonlinear image registration and level set segmentation that can handle different cell densities, occlusions and cell divisions.
