MTQuant
MTQuant rapidly quantifies neuronal microtubule organization by extracting
three parameters from fluorescence images of neuronal microtubules.
Collectively referred to as the ``organization parameters,'' the three parameters are:
Spacing: average number of microns between microtubule ends
Coverage: average number of microtubules in bundle cross-section
Length: average length of microtubules in a single neuron
The MTQuant code allows users to perform four tasks:
Task 1: Generate Maximum Projections from Image Stacks
Task 2: Trace and Generate Neurite Masks
Task 3: Generate Intensity Line Scans
Task 4: Calculate Organization Parameters
To use this code, we assume a basic working knowledge of MATLAB: strings,
cell arrays of strings, comments, using the command line, etc.
