Next-Generation Image Analysis Based on Deep Learning

Experiments often require data from microscope images. For accurate image analysis, segmentation—especially thresholds based on intensity values or color—is used to extract the analysis targets from the image. But this can be time-consuming and affect the sample condition.

TruAI technology’s next-generation image analysis helps solve these challenges.

Green: You can see that the detection accuracy is low due to the unevenness of the GFP label.
Blue: Detecting the nuclei with high accuracy despite scratches and dust on the vessel.

Image Enhancement

The neural network can learn the features of noise in advance, making it possible to construct images with a high signal-to-noise ratio, even if the signals are weak.

Noisy images with very weak fluorescence intensity also make object recognition for segmentation difficult. It’s also important to minimize image fading and acquire the images as quickly as possible.
De-noising using deep-learning technology makes it possible to acquire clear images when the noise level is high and the exposure time is short.

*Although it became one of the most important cell lines in medical research, it’s imperative that we recognize Henrietta Lacks’ contribution to science happened without her consent. This injustice, while leading to key discoveries in immunology, infectious disease, and cancer, also raised important conversations about privacy, ethics, and consent in medicine.

Macro to Micro Imaging

The macro to micro function enables you to acquire an overview image using low-magnification objectives, such as 4x, and then detect the sample area and acquire images of it at high magnification. By using TruAI, this process happens automatically, making your imaging faster and more efficient when using glass slides or dishes with multiple tissue sections.

Macro to Micro Imaging

“The pretrained nuclei recognition is absolutely stunning and now makes it possible to easily analyze very heterogenous samples without compromising on any cell fractions. Especially in high cell density areas, TruAI-based separation is clearly superior to intensity or edge detection, both speed- and performance-wise.”
