Abstract

The present techniques provide for the evaluation of cellular motion and/or cellular properties based on an analysis of motion for cluster of cells. In an exemplary technique, images of cells are acquired and the image is segmented into clusters. Motion data for each respective cluster is derived from the segmented data. The properties of each cluster can be used to evaluate cellular properties and/or cellular motion properties.
