Example of a reference embryo, with organs marked. For easier visualization, only the borders of the masks of the organs are shown.

Segmentation procedure. Top left: Image from the green fluorescence channel. Top right: Image filtered with LoG. Middle left: Result from LoG edge detection. Middle right: Result from Otsu′s threshold. Bottom left: Segmented image after all steps, including morphological closing. Bottom right: Outline of the fish. For illustration purposes, the images are presented with inverted grayscale values.

Segmentation of a DIC image. Top left: grayscale image with inverted grayscale values. Top right: Image filtered with LoG. Middle left: Result from LoG edge detection. Middle right: Result from Otsu′s threshold. Bottom left: Segmented image after all steps, including morphological closing. Bottom right: Outline of the fish.

Registration procedure. Top: Reference fish with 1 day after injection of cancer cells. Middle: Fish to be registered. Bottom: Registered fish. For illustration purposes, the images are presented with inverted grayscale values.

Spot detection. Top: red channel of the image. Bottom: segmented spots. Gamma correction was used in the two images to improve the visibility of the spots. For illustration purposes, the images are presented with inverted grayscale values.
