An Automated Measurement of Ciliary Beating Frequency using a Combined Optical Flow and Peak Detection

OBJECTIVES: The mucociliary transport system is a major defense mechanism of the respiratory tract. The performance of mucous transportation in the nasal cavity can be represented by a ciliary beating frequency (CBF). This study proposes a novel method to measure CBF by using optical flow. METHODS:...
