puchades 1.3 3 There are two main approaches for the analysis of rodent brain section images.
sharoncy 1.1 4
puchades 1.3 5 1. Pixel classification only (with two or more classes)
6 1. Pixel classification with two classes (//immunoreactivity// and //background//), followed by object classification with two classes (//objects-of-interest// and //artefact//).

10 As a general rule, pixel classification is suitable for images in which there are clear differences in the colour, intensity and/ or texture of the feature-of-interest versus the background and other structures.  If there is non-specific labelling in the image that is very similar in appearance to the labelling-of-interest, object classification may allow the non-specific labelling to be filtered out based on object level features such as size and shape. The best approach is determined by trial and error.
