Abstract

Purpose: The aim of our study was to develop a method for the fusion of images received after repeated staining of the same sample taking into account spatial differences between the images. Material and methods: A method of objective fusion performance was investigated on the images receiving during multistep staining of the xenograft tumour cross-sections. Results: It was shown that several images receiving from different steps of staining procedures may be successfully fused by fluorescent marking of slide position with Trout red blood cells before analysis. Conclusions: Proposed technique provides an accurate rigid fusion of light and fluorescent images receiving during multistep image analysis under microscope and may be applied for study of neovascularisation.
