요약 | Imaging of multiple cells has rapidly multiplied the rate of data acquisition as well as our knowledge of the complex dynamics within the mammalian brain. The process of data acquisition has been dramatically enhanced with highly affordable, sensitive image sensors enable high-throughput detection of neural activity in intact animals. Genetically encoded calcium sensors deliver a substantial boost in signal strength and in combination with equally critical advances in the size, speed, and sensitivity of image sensors available in scientific cameras enables high-throughput detection of neural activity in behaving animals using traditional wide-field fluorescence microscopy. However, the tremendous increase in data flow presents challenges to processing, analysis, and storage of captured video, and prompts a reexamination of traditional routines used to process data in neuroscience and now demand improvements in both our hardware and software applications for processing, analyzing, and storing captured video. This project demonstrates the ease with which a dependable and affordable wide-field fluorescence imaging system can be assembled and integrated with behavior control and monitoring system such as found in a typical neuroscience laboratory.An Open-source MATLAB toolbox is employed to efficiently analyze and visualize large imaging data sets in a manner that is both interactive and fully automated. This software package provides a library of image pre-processing routines optimized for batch-processing of continuous functional fluorescence video, and additionally automates a fast unsupervised ROI detection and signal extraction routine. Further, an extension of this toolbox that uses GPU programming to process streaming video, enabling the identification, segmentation and extraction of neural activity signals on-line is described in which specific algorithms improve signal specificity and image quality at the single cell level in a behaving animal. This project describes the strategic ingredients for transforming a large bulk flow of raw continuous video into proportionally informative images and knowledge. |
