A New Method for Segmentation of Colour Images Applied to Immunohistochemically Stained Cell Nuclei

A new method for segmenting images of immunohistochemically stained cell nuclei is presented. The aim is to distinguish between cell nuclei with a positive staining reaction and other cell nuclei, and to make it possible to quantify the reaction. First, a new supervised algorithm for creating a pixe...
