Claim Text:
1. A microscopy device comprising: a microscope configured to obtain image data on a plurality of cells in different cell cycle phases on a substrate; a computing device configured to: an output device configured to output the values of the morphological parameter for corresponding cell cycle phases and fractions of the plurality of cells in the corresponding cell cycle phases, wherein identifying at least a portion of each of the plurality of cells based on the normalized image data comprises segmenting at least a portion of each of the plurality of cells based on the normalized image data comprises segmenting nuclei of the plurality of cells in the normalized image data, wherein segmenting the at least a portion of each of the plurality of cells comprises: obtaining Gaussian intensity image data of the normalized image data; obtaining averaged intensity image data of the normalized image data; obtaining nuclear intensity image data based on the difference between the Gaussian intensity image data and the averaged intensity image data; and segmenting nuclei based on the nuclear intensity image data.
