Cell Morphology
Cellular morphology is highly dynamic and plastic, serving as a critical and informative trait in various biological contexts, particularly in disease studies (Tegtmeyer, 2024). The Image-Pro Cell Morphology protocol simplifies such studies by providing a comprehensive array of morphological measurements at both the individual cell level and across entire populations.
This protocol integrates seamlessly with pre-trained deep learning models, enabling accurate and reliable measurement of cellular morphology. These models often outperform traditional machine learning methods in precision and efficiency (Molho et al., 2024). Designed for user-friendliness, the protocol supports the analysis of large datasets, including complex formats like multi-well plates, with minimal image analysis expertise.
