High-throughput Organoid Tracking Dataset

This is a open high-throughput organoid dataset for tracking. All organoids derive from mouse liver which is cultured in 96-well plate. We take one image by BioTek Cytation5 cell imaging multi-mode reader for each well with the interval of 24 hours.

pipline Pipeline for capturing high-throughout organoid images. The dash frame in (a) are FOVs for scanning. Image patches in (b) are montages captured from 16 FOVs. (c) shows the stitched images from specific focus plane. 32 z-stack images in (d) are projected to generate (e).

3. Annotation parsing

All annotation are created by labelme software (version 4.5.7). The json file for each image can be parsed by labelme directly and get the detailed information. In addition, we can also use the json package to read the annotation information.

  • Detection labels

  • Tracking labels

The json file contains two kinds of key information: First,the position of each qualified organoid; Second, the identity of each qualified organoid.
