Abstract
Techniques for processing images to be used for more accurate measurement of biological processes such as cell migration, as well as techniques for measuring cell migration. A method for processing microscopic images includes generating a smoothed image for a raw image by applying a smoothing filter to the raw image, wherein the raw image shows a plurality of cells and a background; generating a high pass filter image by dividing the raw image by the smoothed image; and transforming the high pass filter image into a transformed image by augmenting the spatial frequency of the plurality of cells shown in the high pass filter image with respect to the background.
