Determination of adipocyte size by computer image analysis.
Methods that allow rapid and accurate determination of adipocyte size are important to studies of energy and glucose metabolism. The direct measurement of adipocyte size by microscopy is widely used, although the method is tedious and time consuming. Computer-assisted image analysis can overcome most of the disadvantages associated with this technique. We report a new method for determining adi...
متن کاملDetermination of Ore Size Distribution with Image Analysis
In the mining industry determination of size distribution is traditionally done with big and very expensive ridars. In this paper a new method for analyzing crushed ore size distribution by means of image analysis from a conveyor belt is introduced. The method introduces a cheap and effective way to do size distribution analysis. Also a special analysis system based on the idea and built at Pyh...
متن کاملMeasuring facial expressions by computer image analysis.
Facial expressions provide an important behavioral measure for the study of emotion, cognitive processes, and social interaction. The Facial Action Coding System (Ekman & Friesen, 1978) is an objective method for quantifying facial movement in terms of component actions. We applied computer image analysis to the problem of automatically detecting facial actions in sequences of images. Three app...
متن کاملAdipocyte size redux
Adipocyte sizing methods have been extensively compared with each other since the late 60’s (1–3) and multiple measures of adipocyte size were established to be associated with metabolic risk (4). Laforest and colleagues (5) address a related and important issue: which method best predicts metabolic risk. They found fairly good correlations among the three commonly used cell sizing methods (col...
متن کاملPre-adipocyte determination either by insulin or by 5-azacytidine.
CHEF/18 is a diploid Chinese hamster cell line of embryonic origin, which is fibroblastic in structure, but behaves like a mesenchymal stem cell line in its ability to differentiate into adipocytes, myoblasts, and chondrocytes. With these cells, adipocyte formation has been divided experimentally into two stages: (i) determination of pre-adipocytes, which have lost the ability to form other cel...
