A comparative study of image processing methods for the assessment of the red blood cells deformability in a microfluidic device

Red blood cells (RBCs) deformability is a high relevant mechanical property, whose variations are associated with some diseases, such as diabetes and malaria. Therefore, the present study aims to compare different image processing methods for assessing the RBCs deformability in a continuous flow, me...
