PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of artificial intelligence-derived morphometric parameters in characterizing Fuchs corneal endothelial dystrophy (FECD) from specular microscopy images.
BACKGROUND: Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is a diagnostic method for the assessment of the lower respiratory airway health status in horses. Differential cell count and sometimes also total nucleated cell count (TNCC) are routinely measured by time-co...
The availability of target cells expressing the HIV receptors CD4 and CCR5 in genital tissue is a critical determinant of HIV susceptibility during sexual transmission. Quantification of immune cells in genital tissue is therefore an important outcom...
Goblet cells (GCs) in the conjunctiva are specialized epithelial cells secreting mucins for the mucus layer of protective tear film and playing immune tolerance functions for ocular surface health. Because GC loss is observed in various ocular surfac...
This study determined the impact of subclinical intramammary infections (IMIs), such as the major and minor udder pathogens (MaPs and MiPs), on the somatic cell count (SCC) in cow milk and investigated the possibilities of indirect sensing of the udd...
RESEARCH QUESTION: Do cell numbers and degree of fragmentation in cleavage-stage embryos, assessed manually, correlate with evaluations made by deep learning algorithm model iDAScore v2.0?

Medical image processing has become increasingly important in recent years, particularly in the field of microscopic cell imaging. However, accurately counting the number of cells in an image can be a challenging task due to the significant variation...
Microalgae possess diverse applications, such as food production, animal feed, cosmetics, plastics manufacturing, and renewable energy sources. However, uncontrolled proliferation, known as algal bloom, can detrimentally impact ecosystems. Therefore,...
PURPOSE: The corneal endothelium, the innermost layer of the human cornea, exhibits a morphology of predominantly hexagonal cells. These endothelial cells are believed to have limited regeneration capacity, and their density decreases over time. Endo...
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most deadly forms of cancer. Methods of characterizing these tumours are valuable for improving predictions of their progression and response to treatment. A mathematical model called the proliferation-inva...
