Segmentation and Tracking of Adherens Junctions in 3D for the Analysis of Epithelial Tissue Morphogenesis

Establishing connectivity among AJ vertices to segment epithelial tissues.
A) Voronoi regions are expanded from vertex locations to generate the Voronoi Diagram associating each voxel to the nearest AJ vertex. B) Supervertices are expanded inside Voronoi regions to link adjacent vertices. C) The AJs graph is built adding an edge between contiguous vertices through pairs of adjacent supervertices. D) Vertices, Voronoi regions and supervertices are superimposed.
