In this example, we are using FACTS with other consecutive sections to identify biocompatible responses to implanted biopolymers. We can [...]

Using an area-based algorithm, we can quantitatively evaluate the sample for elastin percentage. Elastin is a critical component of the microstructure within large arteries such as the aorta. This type of quantitative analysis can be performed on various types of [...]

Statistics of area and perimeter per vacuole are counted, and histograms can be output as required. Some results are shown below. In areas where vacuoles are either not easily seen by eye, or where they [...]
