WHEN TO CHOOSE IMAGE ANALYSIS
Many laboratories are now replacing manual microscopy with automated image
analysis. While microscopy provides qualitative accuracy and shape information,
it requires automated image analysis to inspect the number of particles requited
to obtain statistically valid quantitative results. Choosing image analysis is often
driven by the desire to generate results that are accurate, sensitive to second
populations, contains shape information, and includes images of the particles.
Dynamic image analysis is used in both research and QC laboratories for particles
ranging from 30µm to 30mm. Static image analysis is typically a research tool
for measuring particles in the 0.5 to 1000µm range. Deciding between dynamic
or static image analysis is seldom difficult, as the applications are typically better
served by one technique or the other, as proven through application development
studies.
