Free Form Deformation-Based Image Registration Improves Accuracy of Traction Force Microscopy.

Traction Force Microscopy (TFM) is a widespread method used to recover cellular tractions from the deformation that they cause in their surrounding substrate. Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is commonly used to quantify the substrate's deformations, due to its simplicity and efficiency. Howeve...
