•
Auto Count:
Automatically counts the objects displayed in the Viewing area
based on your specifications (page 30). With Auto Count, you can count objects
only in a single channel.
•
Manual Count:
Allows you to tag objects in the Viewing area with up to six labels.
As you tag objects, the system keeps a running tally of the counts with percentages
for each label assigned (page 34). With Manual Count, you can count objects in
multiple channels simultaneously, provided that they contain images.
•
Confluence:
Allows you to select up to 5 reference objects for the target (i.e.,
cells) and one background reference in your image, then automatically
calculates the percentage confluence of your culture (page 36).
Note:
Display Settings and Analysis Tools are available in both the Capture and
the Review tabs.
