    mage Analysis Algorithms

    Brightfeldositive Pixelount

    Calculates the contribution of each stain atevery pixel location in the image.

    olorDeconvolution

    Separates the image into di erent layers,corresponding to your stains.

    ytoplasmictaining

    Measures intensity and provides the percentageof cells containing stain.

    MembraneAnalysis

    Detects membrane staining for individual cellsand identi es the intensity and completeness of

    the staining.

    uclearAnalysis Detects nuclear staining, and intensity.

    MicrovesselAnalysis

    Detects and "uanti es microvessels stained#ith endothelial mar$ers.

    %are &ventDetection

    'he algorithm uses color segmentation andmorphological image processing methods to

    detect and count ob(ects of interest.

    luorescetyto)!uclear+

    Designed to measure both cytoplasmic andnuclear intensity on a cell)by)cell basis.

    b(ectolocali-ation+

    Capable of measuring ob(ect properties determining colocali-ed ob(ects.

    Microvessel *+ Designed to count vessels measure vesselproperties.

    Areauanti cation

    /uanti es multiple 0orescent dyes on an areabasis.

    Animal Phenoty ing

    ;e o er comprehensive animal phenotyping #itha focus on the assessment of stem cell niches. StemCell Pathology is a rapidly emerging discipline thatprovides critical lin$s bet#een animal modeling,intravital, and histopathological analysis. ;einvestigate the conse"uences of geneticmanipulation in stem cells and determine the roles of stem cells in regenerative medicine and in thepathogenesis of various diseases, such as cancer.

    ur goal is to foster interdisciplinary collaborationto facilitate the advancement of stem cell research. 'he Cornell =niversity Stem Cell Pathology =nitprovides comprehensive pathology services andplanning advice for all pro(ects, #ith an expert focuson stem cell related pro(ects.
