Ultrack
A scalable cell tracking method for 2D, 3D, and multichannel timelapse recordings, robust under segmentation uncertainty.
What is Ultrack?
Ultrack is a versatile and scalable cell tracking method designed for 2D, 3D, and multichannel timelapse recordings, particularly in complex and crowded tissues. It addresses segmentation uncertainty by evaluating multiple candidate segmentations and using temporal consistency to ensure robust tracking performance. The software scales from small datasets to terabyte-scale developmental time-lapses.
Bioimage analysts, computational biologists, and researchers working with timelapse microscopy data who need to track cells in complex tissues or large-scale datasets.
Developers choose Ultrack for its robustness under segmentation uncertainty, scalability to handle terabyte-scale data, and seamless integration with popular tools like napari and FiJi. Its ability to evaluate multiple segmentation hypotheses sets it apart from simpler tracking methods.
