Estimating Bacterial Load in FCFM Imaging [PDF]
We address the task of detecting bacteria and estimating bacterial load in the human distal lung with fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy (FCFM) and a targeted smartprobe. Bacteria appear as bright dots in the image when exposed to a smartprobe, but they are often diffcult to detect due to the presence of background auto fluorescence inherent to ...
