Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Immune cells deeply affect human health. however, it is difficult to directly observe immune cells in vivo. Macrophage is the representative cell of immune cells. The recent study enables us to acquire single macrophage in vivo using 11.7 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). To quantify the kinematics of macrophages, it requires detection and tracking of macrophages in MR image. The kinematic analysis will help researchers to investigate the mechanism of autoimmune diseases. This paper proposes an automated single macrophage tracking method in mouse brain 11.7 T time-lapse MR images. The method detects them using background subtraction algorithm, and tracks using the Hungarian algorithm. The results showed that the proposed method detected and tracked macrophages in MR images successfully.
