Abstract

In order to automatically analyze electron immunomicroscopy images, we have developed a computerized scheme for the detection and characterization of nanometer-size metal particles. This scheme consists of a preprocessing step aimed at enhancing image features and of an extraction step which performs the analysis of the particles. The method is designed to work irrespective of background and scene illumination. Results are presented for the analysis of immunogold labelling of muscle tissues.
