Detecting Lamellipodia in Epithelial Cell Clusters Using a Fully Convolutional Neural Network for Phase Contrast Microscopy Images

We present an approach for segmenting individual cells and lamellipodia in epithelial cell clusters using fully convolutional neural networks. The method will set the basis for measuring cell cluster dynamics and expansion to improve the investigation of collective cell migration phenomena. The full...
