Abstract

Analyzing confocal microscopic data of biological samples using the Imaris software poses challenges due to its time-consuming nature involving tedious multiple steps and possibility of human errors. Here, we developed a supervised automation protocol to minimize manual input in cell and spot counting on confocal images obtained from mouse cochlear sections. The protocol increases efficiency by incorporating image recognition and object-oriented macros. Moreover, the protocol being adaptable allows scientists in diverse other fields to customize it for their specific needs.
