This invention provides a method of dynamic cell tracking in a sample comprising the steps of, generating a correspondence measure between cells in two consecutive time-elapsed images of a sample, evaluating said correspondence measure to generate events linking individual cells in the two images, the events being selected from the group: unchanged, cell removal, cell migration, cell collision and cell division, and providing a tracking output of events linking individual cells in the two images. In the invention, the step of establishing linking events involves verifying the correctness of generated cell collision and cell division events, by calculating an adaptive threshold value for each such event and comparing the threshold value with an event parameter. There is further provided a system for dynamic cell tracking in a sample. |
