Novel use of differential image velocity invariants to categorize ciliary motion defects

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a disorder characterized by sinopulmonary disease arising from ciliary motion defects in respiratory epithelia. An essential first step in the diagnostic evaluation of PCD is the use of high-speed videomicroscopy to analyze ciliary beat patterns in nasal epithelia...

Description
Summary:Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a disorder characterized by sinopulmonary disease arising from ciliary motion defects in respiratory epithelia. An essential first step in the diagnostic evaluation of PCD is the use of high-speed videomicroscopy to analyze ciliary beat patterns in nasal epithelia biopsies. This includes a quantitative assessment of ciliary beat frequency (CBF, where CBF of
