title: Quantitation of isolated pancreatic islets using imaging technology.
abstract: An automated image analysis routine was developed for the quantitative assessment of isolated pancreatic islets. This approach offers the advantages of standardization, increased precision of EIN determinations, batch analysis without user interaction, and the ability to customize the analysis for specialized requirements. Finally, images may be archived for later review or transmitted electronically for off-site analysis.
