Can I make quantitative analysis with Cellvizio and ImageCell?
Different kinds of quantitative analysis can be performed with Cellvizio. In terms of morphology, the very shape of an object is a morphological quantification. However, images in the field of view, smaller than the pixel resolution of the ProFlex flexible imaging microprobe currently in use can only be viewed as accurately as this resolution permits. In terms of intensity, the signal is directly proportional to the amount of light detected, which in turn ensures a grey level quantification. In terms of temporal analysis, since the frame rate is fixed, the time elapsed between two frames is constant. Thus the absolute acquisition time is indelibly associated with each frame.
