AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Cell segmentation is affected by differences between subcellular structures, and cell image intensity gradients are small inside the cell and large around the cell membrane, often leading to over-segmentation by eg marker-controlled watershed segmentation algorithms
Cell segmentation is possible using machine learning-based methods, such as instance segmentation, random forest, U-Net model, etc., but may not be suitable for rapid large-scale analysis of cell data due to time-consuming manual labeling of cell data and model training
In addition, since the morphological characteristics of MSCs are constantly changing, methods using morphological models may not be suitable for cell segmentation

Abstract

The invention provides an anti-background difference-based cell image segmentation method. The method comprises the steps: (A1) carrying out the noise reduction of an obtained original cell image, and obtaining a first image; (A2) performing anti-background difference processing on the first image to obtain a second image; (A3) carrying out global threshold segmentation processing on the second image to obtain a third image; and (A4) carrying out hole filling and image filtering on the cell region in the third image to obtain a fourth image. The method has the advantages of high segmentation precision, high efficiency and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to cell evaluation and cell image processing methods, in particular to a cell image segmentation method based on inverse background difference. Background technique [0002] Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have multi-directional differentiation potential and immunomodulatory properties, and can differentiate into osteogenic, adipose and chondrogenic cell lines under appropriate induction conditions, and are widely used in various tissue regeneration applications and immune-related Treatment of diseases such as acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease. However, the amount of MSCs isolated from bone marrow and other tissues is very small, which cannot meet the demand of MSCs in research and clinical treatment, so large-scale expansion and culture in vitro is required. Cell preparations that meet quality standards are extremely important for subsequent cell therapy applications. The current use of molecular biology standar...
