serial sections and section-to-section image registration is accurate enough to provide a …

Fast, high-contrast imaging of animal development with scanned light sheet–based structured-illumination microscopy

PJ Keller, AD Schmidt, A Santella, K Khairy, Z Bao… - Nature …, 2010 - nature.com
Recording light-microscopy images of large, nontransparent specimens, such as developing
multicellular organisms, is complicated by decreased contrast resulting from light scattering. …

Quantitative high-speed imaging of entire developing embryos with simultaneous multiview light-sheet microscopy

R Tomer, K Khairy, F Amat, PJ Keller - Nature methods, 2012 - nature.com
… where K is the number of objects in the image, μ k is the center location of each nucleus, Σ
k is the covariance matrix (representing the shape of each nucleus as an ellipsoid) and π k is …

Reconstructing embryonic development

K Khairy, PJ Keller - genesis, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Novel approaches to bio‐imaging and automated computational image processing allow
