Image Processing Techniques for Assessing Contractility in Isolated Neonatal Cardiac Myocytes

We describe a computational framework for the quantitative assessment of contractile responses of isolated neonatal cardiac myocytes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on a practical and accessible method for the assessment of contractility in neonatal cardiocytes. The proposed...
