Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for processing and metrically quantifying images of objects containing clusters of points/spots, such as biological specimens comprising cluster of cells, in particular of human or animal origin, or images thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an “in vitro” diagnostic method for diseases affecting human or animal tissues, in particular for the diagnosis of diseases involving inflammation and fibrosis in human or animals, more particularly for liver diseases.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for processing images of irregularly shaped objects, such as biological specimens, in particular of human or animal origin, or images thereof. The metric quantification of a biological body part or tissue or of an abnormal material spot or aggregate contained therein is also performed by means of the invention method. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for processing images of irregularly shaped objects, comprising a stage of acquisition of a digital image of said object, a stage of image elaboration (IMAEL) for quantifying said digital image to 1 bit and a stage of metrical processing of said 1-bit quantized image, wherein said stage of metrical processing comprises: —) a stage of object's metrical quantification (QUANT) for determining Euclidean perimeter P and/or area A of said object; —) a stage of dimensional calculation (DIM-CLC) for calculating a fractal-corrected perimeter Pf and/or area Af of said object.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for processing images of biological tissues, in particular of human or animal origin. The metric quantification of a biological body part or tissue or of an abnormal material spot or aggregate contained therein is also performed by means of the invention method. The method according to the invention is applied in particular to the Computed Axial Tomography technique.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for processing images of irregularly shaped objects, such as biological specimens, in particular of human or animal origin, or images thereof. The metric quantification of a biological body part or tissue or of a material spot or aggregate of any origin which is contained therein is also performed by the present invention method. In particular, the method of the present invention is applied to the “confocal microscopy” technique. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of processing digital images including one or more objects to be quantified, the method including normalization of the digital images and quantization of the images to one bit.
