This program separates spheres in 3D binary TIFF images using Euclidean Distance Map and a watershed algorithm.
INPUT : 3D binary TIFF image (an example is provided in the program)
OUTPUT (in the same folder as the input) :
- 3D binary TIFF image of separated spheres
- 3D binary TIFF image of contact regions (for a complete study of those contacts, see "3D Contact Analysis" on Matlab Central)
The user can run an example. The program will use a provided .mat file to create a .tif image containing 3D spheres that will be used to run the script. The user can play with the TIFF image afterwards.
