2 Analyzing Unusual Cells
2.1 Overview
The image analysis Operator is the part of the software that takes care of the image evaluation. For various
application scenarios, three pre-settings for the Operator are available that have been adapted to a wide cell size
spectrum:
c
Min. Size for small cells with an average diameter of about 6 μm, default sedimentation time is 90 seconds.
c
Std. Size for normal-sized cells with an average diameter of about 12 μm, default sedimentation time is 60
seconds.
c Max. Size for large cells with an average diameter of more than 16 μm, default sedimentation time is 60
seconds.
Individual adjustments of the Operator may be helpful for cell cultures that, for instance, have an unusual
optical appearance, or for a counting strategy that deviates from the standard counting strategy (e.g., counting
aggregates differently).
Adjustment of the Operator is referred to as creating a new Cell Type. A new Cell Type can be created, or an
already existing Cell Type can be readjusted using a number of parameters that influence the way in which an
image is evaluated. Each of these parameters directly influences the image processing strategy and, hence, the
measurement results.
Once a new Cell Type has been created and/or modified, measurements can be performed using the new Cell
Type, and existing measurements can be reprocessed with the new Cell Type.
The parameters of the factory-installed presets are over writable. For data safety reasons, do not alter the
parameters of the factory-installed Cell Types.
