Temporal dynamics improves machine learning-based prediction of cell state from quantitative phase imaging

Cell morphology reflects cell health and can distinguish cell-cycle stage, growth arrest, and distinct pathways of cell death.

Cell morphology reflects cell health and can distinguish cell-cycle stage, growth arrest, and distinct pathways of cell death. Live, label-free quantitative phase imaging (QPI) captures these features non-invasively and with high temporal resolution, yet many image-based…
