From cells to pixels: A decision tree for designing bioimage analysis pipelines.
Bioimaging has transformed our understanding of biological processes, yet extracting meaningful information from complex datasets remains a challenge, particularly for biologists without computational expertise. This paper proposes a simple general approach, to help identify which image analysis methods could be relevant for a given image dataset. We first categorise structures commonly observed in bioimage data into different types related to image analysis domains. Based on these types, we provide a list of methods adapted to the quantification of images from each category. Our approach includes illustrative examples and a visual flowchart, to help researchers define analysis objectives clearly. By understanding the diversity of bioimage structures and linking them with appropriate analysis approaches, the framework empowers researchers to navigate bioimage datasets more efficiently. It also aims to foster a common language between researchers and analysts, thereby enhancing mutual understanding and facilitating effective communication.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Microscopy is the oldest journal dedicated to the science of microscopy and the only peer-reviewed publication of the Royal Microscopical Society. It publishes papers that report on the very latest developments in microscopy such as advances in microscopy techniques or novel areas of application. The Journal does not seek to publish routine applications of microscopy or specimen preparation even though the submission may otherwise have a high scientific merit.
The scope covers research in the physical and biological sciences and covers imaging methods using light, electrons, X-rays and other radiations as well as atomic force and near field techniques. Interdisciplinary research is welcome. Papers pertaining to microscopy are also welcomed on optical theory, spectroscopy, novel specimen preparation and manipulation methods and image recording, processing and analysis including dynamic analysis of living specimens.
Publication types include full papers, hot topic fast tracked communications and review articles. Authors considering submitting a review article should contact the editorial office first.
