Abstract:The accurate quantification of skeletal muscle fiber cross‐sectional areas is desired in diverse areas of biomedical research. Majority of current studies employ time consuming analysis techniques with manual outlining of muscle fibers using Image J software. The goal of our study was to adapt CyteSeer, a recently developed automated image analysis program, for the quantification of skeletal muscle fiber cross‐sectional areas. Initial CyteSeer algorithm created masks located in the middle of the endomysium bet… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
