title = "Shear field around adherent leukocytes as measured by micro-PTV",
abstract = "Polystyrene micro-particle (bead) tracking velocimetry (μ-PTV) with automatic object detection was used to measure fluid shear rates around adhered leukocytes in venules of the living murine cremaster muscle. Morphology-based automated bead detection was followed by auction-based bead-pair assignment. Beads above or below the objective's depth-of-field were identified and eliminated by a blurriness algorithm which approximated the microscope's point-spread-function as an axially-varying two-dimensional Gaussian. These data allow construction of shear rate and shear stress maps around adherent leukocytes with 0.5 micrometer resolution.",
