Glossary of cell "feature" plotting axis terms

This glossary will be updated soon.
In the meantime, you can hover over a feature in either axis to read a popup definition.

The following terms are used in the interactive plot of the Cell Feature Explorer. The cells can be plotted and colored by any measured feature.

Cell height: the height of a cell, as measured by the number of pixels that separates the bottom most and top most pixel in the segmented image converted to units of µm.

DNA height: the height of a nucleus, as measured by the number of pixels that separates the bottom most and top most pixel in the segmented image converted to units of µm.

Cell volume: the volume of a cell, as measured by the sum of individual volumes of segmented voxels in the segmented cell image, in units of µm³.

DNA volume: the volume of a nucleus of a given cell, as measured by the sum of individual volumes of segmented voxels in the DNA segmentation image, in units of µm³.

Cell surface area: the surface area of a cell, as measured by the sum of individual surface area of segmented voxels, in units of µm².

DNA surface area: the surface area of a nucleus of a given cell as measured by the sum of individual surface area of segmented voxels, in units of µm².

Cellular structure volume: the volume of the fluorescently labeled structure of a given cell, as measured by sum of individual volumes of segmented voxels, in units of µm³.

Anaphase segmentation complete:  Whether the segmentation contains the entirety of the cell boundary (only determined for cells in anaphase).

Interphase or mitosis: Whether a particular cell is currently in interphase or mitosis.

Interphase & mitotic stages: Which of 5 stages of the cell cycle (determined by the shape of the DNA) a particular cell is currently in.
