  1. “original image” refers to the images in Figure 11 (bottom), whereas “background subtracted image” refers to the same images but with subtracted background. The results for interobserver variability are shown in bold font and for the intraobserver variability in italic respectively. Because of the nature of our algorithm, RodCellJ produces zero variability, hence guaranteeing reproducible results.
