Analysis of filopodia dynamics
ImageJ & R, for advanced analysts. Slides, Scripts, Reproduction of results & deconstruction. Segmentation of filopodia (thin filamentous structure) and analysis of their shape and movements to characterize phenotypes.
Filament tracing
Filament tracing operations are image analysis operations in which there is an image of a filamentous structure (it may be a tree-like structure, a filament network or a agglomeration of single 'stick-like' filaments) as input and outputs data that represent the filament, most commonly a skeleton representation of the filaments and their diameters or surfaces.

Tumor Blood Vessels: 3D Tubular Network Analysis
In this session, we will implement a simple ImageJ macro to segment and analyze the blood vessel network of a subcutaneous tumor. The analysis is fully performed in 3D, and possible strategies to extract statistics of the network geometry and interactively visualize the results are also discussed and implemented.
