Proposal of Estimation Parameters for Red Blood Cell Aggregation Distribution by Using Histogram of Image Correlation Coefficient

Abstract

In recent years, non-invasive monitoring system for blood viscosity has been widely discussed. We have proposed a method to estimate the blood viscosity by measuring the degree of red blood cell aggregation with image correlation coefficient. In this paper, to estimate the aggregation degree in sample suspensions, histogram of the image correlation coefficient obtained from every correlation window on microscopic images was focused.
