+ | The leukocyte application detects and tracks rolling leukocytes (white blood cells) in in vivo video microscopy of blood vessels. The velocity of rolling leukocytes provides important information about the inflammation process, which aids biomedical researchers in the development of anti-inflammatory medications. | ||

+ | Tracking is accomplished by first computing, in the area surrounding each cell, a Motion Gradient Vector Flow (MGVF) matrix. The MGVF is a gradient field biased in the direction of blood flow, and it is computed using an iterative Jacobian solution procedure. After computing the MGVF, an active contour is used once again to refine the shape and determine the new location of each cell. | ||
