Abstract :
Image thresholding techniques are focused on quantitative estimation of cell confluence in microscopy imaging. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis is presented and discussed with application to uncertainty affecting cell confluence estimated by inspection of fluorescence micrographs.
