Segmentation of Endothelial Cell Boundaries of Rabbit Aortic Images Using a Machine Learning Approach

This paper presents an automatic detection method for thin boundaries of silver-stained endothelial cells (ECs) imaged using light microscopy of endothelium mono-layers from rabbit aortas. To achieve this, a segmentation technique was developed, which relies on a rich feature space to describe the s...
